Lee that is a beautiful color, what is the name of that plant?

Hetty, that looks like the true Christmas Cactus. Does it have a name?

Here is another one. this is the light Orange Zygocactus (what they call them in some places because of the shape of the flowers) You can see the soft points on the stem which indicates the cultivar as S. Truncata and it blooms in October and November. Some call them Thanksgiving Cactus.

The Cultivars S. Truncata and S. Orssichiana have the different stem-segments then the S. russelliana and the S. opuntioides.
