A Christmas Cactus That Celebrates Many Times A Year

A Christmas Cactus That Celebrates Many Times A Year

I have a plant that I have always known as a Christmas Cactus because it blossoms during the holiday season every year. I have had many of these over the years but the one I have now is different. It blossoms many times during the year. I am beginning to wonder if I have it mixed up with something else or if it just likes to celebrate Christmas throughout the year.

Over the last couple of years it has blossomed many times throughout the year with no set pattern that I can recognize. The blossoms are really beautiful although hard to see because of the way the limbs dangle down. I took this photo this morning.

John...how does this plant do during this spring/winter storm?  any confusion with blossoming?  Cherise

Hi John, I think it just has to have the right conditions in order to bloom. Some of these cacti bloom around Easter and thus are called Easter cacti but you seem to have the green thumb to bring out the blossom more than once a year!  Good job.

John, it's beautiful.  You must have that special touch to keep it happy and blooming!  I admit that I have lost my touch with plants but do enjoy everyone else's.

I've never heard of one blooming that much. You must be doing something right.

Hi John, It's cool that it blooms more than once a year.  I like the color of the flower too; most I have seen are red flowers AND they usually don't look nearly as healthy as yours :-)

They are really beautiful, John! I have a friend that has a huge one - I'll have to ask her how often it blooms...
