Gin,

These look beautiful and it looks like you have three (at least) different clones. One of my houseplant books lists both a Christmas cactus and a Thanksgiving cactus. Frankly, I couldn't really tell what the differences were. (At least from the photo illustrations in the book.)

Obviously your plants are very happy with the conditions you grow under. Do you grow them with your orchids?

Wozer! Your Christmas cactus is growing like crazy. Look at all those blooms. I think I need to fertilize mine more.

WOW!

Cheers,

Thanks for looking ,
They go outside in the spring stay out under a tree until it hits about 45 degrees then are taken to the porch that is where they stay until spring . I give them MSU. Fert. the same as the orchids get . Gin

I hear that they need two weeks of nights 55 and under to set blooms.

They all look beautiful. My is just starting to put out bud. For those who didn't know. Don't move the plant once it is in bud because all the bud will fall.

Wow Gin, they are really nice. I had to sell my collection of Christmas (Holiday) Cactus to make room for my Orchids. I do miss them but they went like crazy at last summers yard sale!
