Early "BUMP"......

Here is a picture of my Baby X-mas cacti. Cuttings taken after bloom December 2010.

Till the weather got seasonal--I kept all these in all my mid-ledges of all my windows.
Ignored....Dried out.....but they are just fine now.....

Now they all sit in a tray right smack next to my entrance in total, bright shade.
They seem to love the fresh air--the humidity--and the frequent watering I give them.
Most of them are in 2" clay, or ceramic, pots. I prefer clay.....

I KNOW several of these will bloom by Th-Giving....will be fun to take pictures...
2"--3" plants in bloom! A novelty! Some already did last winter....

Plant Swap in September people? LOOK OUT!

JBerger! haven't heard from you all year! Everything OK?
I know we are all sweltering.....How are all YOUR plants doing????
