I love Christmas cactus. Yours is gorgeous. I have a small one I rooted from a friends, still waiting for it to bloom.

Beautiful plant. I think you must have more than just a green thumb. I'll bet you have a whole green hand!! Mine is blooming right now too, but it only has two flowers.

That is one of the most beautiful Christmas cacti I have ever seen! My mom had one that was like that and every year it would just take off about Thanksgiving. Mine would look ready to bloom - then all the buds would drop off and the plant would be sad. So after a couple plants, I have given up and admire others'.

You have a beautiful Christmas Cactus! Happy you rescued it! I have a small one I've had for 3 or 4 years and it blooms every year - is blooming now - but nowhere near as healthy looking as yours!

It was probably very happy to move to a happy home!

Well, that looks like one happy plant. I had one for years, then life got in the way and it died. Might be time to get me another one. I love having blooming plants around me.
