I'm delighted to tell you that Christmas has arrived! I have a plant that we call a "Christmas Cactus." My understanding is that it blooms these absolutely gorgeous blooms at Christmas.
Well, this plant is just a bit confused, and more so than usual. Normally it begins blooming late in November, sometimes in time for Thanksgiving. Then it blooms again, sometimes for Christmas, for Valentine's Day, and for Easter. It's covered with the palest fuchsia flowers. It looks a lot like this.
So, my plant is confused. Elegante Mother's Christmas cactus is confused, too. Soon we'll have a mass of hot orangey-red blooms open on her cactus. That MUST mean .... IT'S CHRISTMAS!!!!! Break out the mulled wine!
If you have had weather anything like our weather, I can understand why your plants are confused. We haven't seen the sun for a week (literally since last Sunday), so our plants must think think it is in the deep of winter!
