Valentine's Day Cactus

#10 February Two

My 'Schlumbergera', aka Christmas cactus, bloomed for Thanksgiving.
Then again during Christmas and New Years.
Now putting out new buds for Valentine's Day.
A multi-holiday plant!

Quite, quite pretty! :)

looks like that the cactus is commercially indoctrinated! :-)

Pretty close up. My Christmas Cactus is about to bloom again too. I wonder what's going on?? V

Wow, your cactus plant is really healthy and I'm glad it's up to date with all the holidays. Lovely capture of the buds. V.

Any plant I would have had would have been dead a long time ago, I like how you call it a Valentine's day cactus.

Looks pretty here but not a plant I really like. But I'm not a keen indoot plant fan

I posted the same thing yesterday. Love these plants.

It's such a giving plant...here the name " Christmas Cactus " was dropped to just Schlumbergera since it doesn't flower until our winter in July :)

I like it's heart shape bud!!

All-purpose plant it seems! Lovely colour to the buds and to the background. V
