Hello, it's bright pink. It had always been kept in the front window and caught the sun. However, i transfered it to a rear room about 10mths ago and decided, without knowing what type of plant it was other than some form of cacti and then watered it about once a week; about 50mls. Then a few weeks ago i noted buds forming. So i just kept that watering regieme and hey presto. Beautiful. I want to take cuttings and repot it. So i'll be looking to do that post bloom. @@LETSGROWGARDENDESIGN

Have had my Thanksgiving Cactus 10+ years. She's salmon pink. I used to quit watering, and refrain from any artificial lighting in the room, beginning in October. However, this October, she just began forming buds. (I still avoid artificial light.) I use succulent mix, fertilized with used coffee grounds (Grandma did).

I will try the coffee ground also cheers

I've begun geeking out about these types of cactus/succulents. Clipings, soils, watering, light, temp, lots to learn!

Ohh that’s great! And thanksgiving cactus is a breeze to propagate ! Just clip off a node, let harden for a day or two. Then plant in directly into soil or root out the cutting in a mix of perlite and vermiculite 😀🌳

Wonderful! 💚

Hi new subscriber here im sure the bridgesii is a truncata hybrid so it could well be a holiday /thanksgiving cactus also .though. Schlumbergera bucklyi is true Christmas cactus it has been for a hundred fifty years in uk.cheers.

Cactus Can I transfer my plant to a new room once they start blooming? They’ve been in a dark and cold room for 2 months now, but now I want to bring them into a room that’s warm and bright to enjoy them. Will they tolerate the transfer?

Hi there. Yes, they can handle it. You can also transfer to brighter spot once you see buds forming on the segmented tips of cactus. 😀🪴

My beautiful Thanksgiving cactus has buds all over, but only two of them opened up the flowers and now some of the buds are falling off… What have I done to her?

I am so sorry Nikki. How damp is the soil? If she is too wet she might drop buds. And sometimes when you buy a new plant, they can drop buds when trying to acclimate to a new home. Hope this is helpful. 😀🪴
