I bought a potted seasonal cactus at the supermarket earlier this month. The flowers have been opening on it ever since then.
This variety is frequently called Thanksgiving or Christmas Cactus since the plant flowers bloom during our year-end holidays. See the Wikipedia reference to Schlumbergera.
I took this photo yesterday in our outdoor patio. Click on the image to enlarge.
Treat it like a houseplant with bright indirect light most of the year, then a little drier in November. Shorter days and longer nights trigger bud formation.
Right now I’ve got it out on the patio, until the frosts come. Thank you.
Should do fine there.
Thanks!
