My Mom's Christmas Cactus is a traitor too... blooms ALL YEAR, *except* at Christmas.
Sheesh.
threaten it with a day in the snow? ;p i don't think I've had one that bloomed when it was supposed to actually...
Hey V - how are you doing? I'm not a cactus fan, because the ones we had in our graden were very painful! but, I love the flower of this one :O)
Vee, your Christmas Cactus is lovely! Maybe it is a Thanksgiving Cactus! LOL
Love your little bears. They are so precious.
Sorry I was away and didn't post to your blog sooner but we will be moving hopefully soon. So busy, busy!
Vee, that is one absolutely gorgeous photo shot! Seriously!!!
I was wandering the store earlier tonight and was thinking that I need some sort of house plant in my new little place...a holiday one. Any ideas?
Hope you have a great weekend. :)
Well don't feel too bad about that. My Christmas cactus that normally would bloom at Thanksgiving bloomed for Halloween. Now, I have never heard of a Halloween cactus.
Mine should be forming flower buds soon. Since I live in a zone close to where they orginated I get xmas blooms. You're so far north your poor plant is confused-LOL!
I dident kno yu had diffrent thanksgivings. In falt I'm not shor I knew yu had wun. But if yors cayme ferst it waz probly best.
See that? See? I rote sumthing nice eevn tho yu think its funny if I get torn furry lim from furry lim in catnipt indewst frenzy. Huh!
Our varieties don't bloom until June/July being that they are our winter months. I love their flowers!

ahh that's pretty. I'm waiting for mine. It has buds but the blooms haven't come out yet.
They are beautiful flowers aren't they. I have an Easter one and it has a mind of its own. It blooms whenever it wants to.
Sophia ... Cyclamen is the traditional Christmas plant XD
hehe... I call mine The Hallowe'en Cactus because it blooms in time for Hallowe'en every year. Silly thing.
Better than the *other* one that has thrived for years (new growth three times a year) but NEVER bloomed! Arg!
