| I just bought this Xmas cactus . It was not identified when I bought it and I'm trying to find the name. The buds are an off white/cream colored. The flowers are salmon/peach/orange in color. I guess there is magenta in deep throat of ten flower. My guess is possible Fantasy. Buy I need a more experienced I . Thoughts on this plant ?    |

| Hi MomG, It looks like Schlumbegera truncate. Often called Thanksgiving or Crab Cactus. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S... http://www.missouribotanicalga... http://www.cactus-art.biz/sche... |

| Hi MomG: That's a beautiful holiday cactus you have, love the color and I agree with Metrosideros, it does look like Christmas Cactus (Schlumbergera truncata) ~ Playing in the dirt is my therapy ... and I'm in therapy a lot! ~ |
