I love all these other colors you all are showing. I will want some more too. I have mine in a window above my kitchen sink in full sun, and it's getting moisture too. Everything I put in this window does great. Mine needs re-potting, and it's young. I guess I will wait until after it quits blooming, and then get a bigger pot. How big do they get?

I read this post a few days ago when we were in Mn. to attend our grand daughters wedding. Of course I forgot my password so could not log in.
I wanted to explain that the cactus they sell as Christmas cactus are really thanks giving cactus.There are Christmas cactus and Easter cactus.The leaves are different.(Schlumbergera Xbuckleyi) has scalloped leaf margins and whorls of satiny flowers that dangle from segmented stems, which resemble leaves. It is sometimes called zygocactus or holiday cactus. The true Christmas cactus usually does not bloom until mid-December; many plants sold as Christmas cactus are actually Thanksgiving cactus.[ATTACH=CONFIG]453885[/ATTACH]You can see the difference in the leaf shape.

(Schlumbergera truncata) blooms several weeks earlier than Christmas cactus. It has 2 to 4 pointed teeth along the margins of stem segments. It is also known as crab cactus.
Wishing you all a Happy New Year.
