Oh how beautiful!

It's a Christmas cactus...not poinsettia. Different conditions affect their blooming. Mine are blooming right now also.

It's beautiful and congrats getting one to live to the ripe old age of 15!!! I'm lucky if I can keep one alive for the month of December

Wow..that is one happy plant. Be glad it blooms at all! I have one that is about 25 yrs old and it stopped blooming for a few years but blooms now..all different times of the year.

Your Christmas Cactus is huge and beautiful!! I would be happy with it no matter when it bloomed! Enjoy! You must have a very green thumb!

I have one that is blooming right now and does every year from Nov to Jan. Mine is probably twice as big as yours and I have had it for 17 or 18 years.
