    Our Christmas Cacti are a bit off season, but at least the one blooming is orange! Now I guess they're Halloween Cacti.

    Nice one, Rico. I didn't realize until recently that these are epiphytic plants. I took a rooted cutting from my house plant and mounted it pendulous like an orchid and put it in the greenhouse. So far it seems to be responding well. Time will tell.
    Mine isn't in bud yet but usually flowers around Thanksgiving.
