Christmas in July

Posted on July 16, 2016 by macmsue

Last year I saw a post showing a delightful “Christmas Cactus” AKA Zygocactus. Mine is flowering now so I figure it must be one of those “Christmas in July” events.

I’ve never had much luck with Christmas Cactus, but this one is beautiful! Good to know the Latin name.

  I think mine is simply a survivor, it doesn’t get any special treatment so I guess it just loves the spot it’s in. 🙂

That is absolutely beautiful. Even moreso seeing as mine looks like death warmed over at this time of the year. Lol.

  Mine grows under a pergola with twice daily micro sprays on it during summer but we’ve had rain recently so none of that just now. I bought it as a favour from a neighbour who was moving interstate about 30 years ago. It is certainly happy to just get on with life without any indulgence. 🙂
