No buds here yet. And those are Thanksgiving cactus.

Thanksgiving is a holiday though :) but you’re right. It’s definitely not a Christmas cactus.

Dave - Great growth for two years! It's very pretty too.

My favorite TC color at the moment...

This white TC flower can be also be seen above in the background, left.

A very small pot of TC, I was surprised to find it blooming!

wowwwwww. gorgeous flowers everyone!

This One is

I thought mine was Christmas cactus until the buds appeared. Which means, I am missing a plant in my collection and need to get a Christmas cactus now, lol. Here’s my bloomer, a plastic pot inside an orchid pot for decoration. I should’ve re-potted it a couple of months ago but decided to wait to see if it bloomed!

How do you tell Thanksgiving and Christmas cactus apart?

Christmas cacti don’t have the little spikes.

Gorgeous, gorgeous!!! Not a hint of a bloom here...it has to get below 85 degrees first Lol...it looks like we will have our very first "cool" front next week. Highs in the mid 70's Whoo Hoo!!! Can't wait to see and feel that :o)

Oh heavens. These are GORGEOUS! Now I know why my grandmother has always been so proud of her Christmas cactus. If I can get her to break off a stem and mail it to me, is there any chance of it surviving shipment from Alabama to Texas?

No buds yet....if at all. Cuttings I rooted this Summer.

Another pic from today.

everyone's beautiful cactuses convinced me to join the club....could not get just one!!

Question: can i plant all three in one pot and not impede on their own colour retention?

can should i use cactus soil instead of regular potting soil? i haven't made any 5/1/1 yet.

got the red last week

will it open up white with pinkish centre?

is this peach or orange?

I planted a pink/fuchsia & a white together over 20 years ago & their colors are still true....Try it, see how it goes.

thanks Debra!! i just scrolled up to see your double... love it!!

Colors will stay same (you would need to cross-pollinate and grow them from the seeds to get new/different colors), so pot them up if you want 'mixed pot'. IIRC, some ppl use very barky mix for them. Look at the photo posted by Josh - looks like all bark in the pic. Mine are in gritty, but am thinking repotting into mostly bark. They have only tiniest buds now, too early to post.

I grow mine in orchid mix.
