CHRISTMAS CACTUS

This is a picture of a bloom on our Christmas Cactus. Nothing out of the ordinary you say. What is strange, however, our Cactus bloomed at Christmas and is blooming again for Easter. I have nothing to attribute this to. It has never done this before. Anyone out there have any strange plant observations to report?

    I see scattered blooms these days, but they are probably due. Nothing like your cactus, for now. Beutiful flower anyway.

    This is really strange as they only bloom once a year, whether in Christmas or Easter, depending on the species... Take good care of this one! :-)))

    It's a blooming idiot!

    Or, maybe it's climate change...or maybe it loves you!

    It's pretty, I'll say that, too.

    The flower is lovely and the color is a day-brightener.

    Mine is doing the same thing; it's about a week slower than yours. How neat!

    Mine is also blooming again. I personally think it is the tender, loving care you and I give them. Mine is a monstrous sized Christmas Cactus which someone gave me about ten years ago because it was too big for here house at that time. She has since gotten a larger house, but I'm not giving it back. I have to say, I like the color of yours better than mine.

    As you can see, I saw your post earlier, and I must admit that you inspired my post today. I've been under the weather and had to fall back on an indoor shot.

    One of mine did that once. A long time ago, and never again.

    Maybe it's a sign. ???

    (LOL!)
