At last flowers!!

Post by sue46 »

Have had this "Christmas Cactus" for quite a few years and the last couple of years it has sat in kitchen window quite happily doing nothing (it went outside this year for the summer :lol: ). I noticed this starting to bud up a couple of days ago and yesterday I noticed it flowering for me! Okay it's only one but so pleased (tu)

Well done that plant. (tu)

Next year, do it 3 days earlier!

Mine has just fallen to bits. Probably my fault for letting it dry out for too long. I'm trying to root a couple of pieces.
