Sally--

The true CC has smaller, rounded leaves same as the Easter cactus--which also
has smooth edges. Except--the true CC's leaves are much smaller...daintier.
The Holiday (Thanksgiving) cactus has the spiked leaves.

Another thing about the true CC--it's stems tend to hang down--kind of drooping--
and so do the blooms. They hang straight down.
The Thanksgiving cactus blooms arch kind of sideways and upwards.

Sally--how did you prepare your Tropical Milkweed for winter. Is it just in the house?
Mine is dead--I am sure--as I just left it outside in the BIG pot.
