What a lovely color. Very nice.
I have been on the CactusGuide.com forum for some help identifying a few of my older plants.
Those people really know their cactus.They identified the orchid cactus I inherited as
Genus= Disocactus&species=hybridus which basically is a Red Orchid Cactus. This is a shot of the bottom blooms that just opened.
The also identified my little one I call Petra's Pink as a True Christmas Cactus. There is quite a bit of confusion as to trying to identify these old plants. This I thought was a russelliana but in fact it could be a xbuckleyi. So, I am just going to sell it as a True Christmas Cactus. The first bloom is so tiny and the plant is so dainty compared to others, I still think it is a russelliana, but what do I know. Here is a shot of the first bloom on a l year old plant.
Hope you all enjoy your Christmas with those wonderful Cactus blooming and spreading their joy. Gosh , they make me so happy when I see a new bud....it is so rewarding when they show off your efforts by blooming at the right time.
