My tiny thanksgiving cactus is blooming! I just love the vivid colors on this flower, and when I look at it in just the right way, it looks like a colorful goose about to take flight! 😁 #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict bloomingSuccs">#bloomingSuccs #FalseChristmasCactus #thanksgivingcactus #ZygoCactus #holidaycactus flowerpower">#flowerpower floweringPlants">#floweringPlants
@LaSiguanaba You're right! It does! πŸ’š πŸ’šπŸ’š
@princesspitstop Right? Once you see it, you can’t unsee it! πŸ˜‚
@LaSiguanaba Totally! I never realized that! Haha It's such a bold color ❀️ I've got a bloom opening on my white one. I wonder if it will look like a swan πŸ˜‚ we shall see πŸ™ˆ
@princesspitstop You’ll have to post a picture, Heidi! I love seeing all the holiday cacti blooming!!! 😍
@LaSiguanaba Goose or a Seagull? πŸ˜‚ Whatever it is it's in mid-flight!
@princesspitstop Definitely a goose!πŸͺΏ
@LaSiguanaba Agreed! They make me so happy! Do you remember that 4" Thanksgiving Cactus I bought not long ago with hot pink blooms? It was completely full of blooms. Every single one of them, except for one, fell off without opening. So depressing. I bought it from the store less than a mile from my house. The white one my mother-in-law gave me for my birthday and I drove it 4 hours from her house to mine and it's perfectly fine. Explain that! Lol
So pretty!!
@princesspitstop It’s funny you mention this story because a similar thing happened to me with this little cactus. It had tons of blooms and then all but 2 fell off! So, because hope springs eternal or I’m a sucker, I bought a bigger Christmas cactus today with tons of buds on it! I hope this one will actually bloom for me.🀞🏽🀞🏽🀞🏽
@RefinedSandwort Thanks! ☺️
@princesspitstop l don’t have an explanation but it’s not uncommon for them to drop unopened buds when you purchase them. I guess it’s the change in conditions. I count it a blessing if some of the buds open!
