Hi Sandy,
It's beautiful! Thanks for sharing it with us...and everyone else too who has posted pics.
Maybe we can start a thread to post everyone’s' X-mas cactus plant pics when they are in full bloom...not as a competition or anything like that, but just a single place so we can see them all together. Maybe one of the mods can make it a sticky thread for us when it gets started.
Mine is a huge specimen with 2 to 3 hundred buds on it now. I'm hoping it will be in full bloom for the holidays like it usually is.

Whiterabbit, I think that you are going to have to send a cutting of yours to Sandy so she can add it to he collection!
Sandy, I'm looking forward to pics of your patio when everything is in full bloom!

These are just beautiful!!! I'm happy to see this thread. It's not always about orchids, you know?
I've got a few different colors, but right now my whites are in bloom. I'll try to take a few shots during the week.
I hope others will posts pics are theirs too

Since this thread is still floating around here, thought I'd post the latest updates.
All of my X'mas Cactus are loaded with buds. Waiting on the red, salmon, yellow, pink, peach and a lavander one that I've yet to ever see anywhere. I bought it out of bloom and I'm just hoping the tags weren't switched.

I wondered all year what the one tagged, 'lavender' would look like. It's more pink in person than the photo shows but, pretty just the same.
And the coral one is beginning to bloom now too.
Thanks for looking!
