My wife is the plant person. She has never had one in the past with blooms this big or this unusual color.

Very nice picture of your wife's beautiful and unusual Christmas Cactus, Dave.

Like Pointsettias, they need 12-14 hour nights to make them bloom. Electric lights on at night will keep them from getting buds. Try putting it in a sunny window in an unused room starting around Oct 1.

oops, just realized your Christmas is in the summer. You may have to move it into a closet at night to get it enough hours of darkness for it to bloom at Christmas...
