christmas cactus


I don't know if it's just because it has the word 'Christmas' in it, but I LOVE THIS PLANT. I came to have this plant when one of my nephews accidently tipped my parent's cactus over, breaking off a couple of its arms. We put the arms in water and watched as they slowly sprouted roots. I asked if I could have the starts and took it home.

Fast forward at least 2 years and this plant as never never blossomed very well. It would sprout a couple buds, they would open a little, and fall off. Apparently it likes this Arizona weather because it keeps on growing and there is at least 12 buds popping out!
