Pretty blooms DonnieBrook, Painted lady is stunning. I have good news and bad news about my HD white Holiday cactus. The good news is the older larger blooms have started to open and they are beautiful white with just 2 drops of lipstick pink. Very showy. The bad news is I'm losing a lot of the smaller buds, they're just dropping off if I touch the plant. Maybe shock from the move? I'm also closely monitoring for bugs. I have it in a very cool window that can be a little drafty. It is about 4 ft. from the stove so it might get a blast of warmth occasionally.
