My Birthday Cactus

I know, I know, it's really "Christmas Cactus," but, in my house it starts blooming around Thanksgiving, looks gorgeous through Christmas, quits at New Year's and then starts again the beginning of March.  And, even the new white one that Bryce gave me for our anniversary this year is blooming again, as you can see.  I LOVE this plant!  It really  must love the location I have it in, because this is the fourth time it has bloomed since we moved here.




Oh, by the way, today is my birthday, hence the title.  If you read this, please leave a comment.  It would be a great birthday treat for me!

Happy Birthday Laurie! I've had a lot of Christmas Cacti but they have never bloomed so profusely. It seems you have more than a green thumb - more like ten green ones. :)

Em, is the surprise you're talking about the next round in the "Three Musketeers" saga? If so, it's up to Bryce at this point. Sara already got him back down in his office. We'll see where they go next. Hmmm, maybe I need to do it?
