Here is the Rosea, I put it next to some pencils so you can get an idea of how petite it is, I have been growing it from a 3 piece segment someone sent me last year, mostly under artificial lights. I just started a new shoot directly behind it, you can't really see it in this picture. Can't wait to see flowers on this one....the thing is, I can get the thanksgiving and xmas cacti to bloom, but the Easter varieties need a cold period during the time that they would freeze to death if I put them outdoors. Does anyone have any suggestions on how they get theirs to bloom?
