For those of you that like Christmas cacti

A couple of weeks ago I saw a Craigslist post saying there would be some big Christmas cacti and other plants there. So I went early one Saturday and found some phenomenal plants for dirt cheap.

Well, the same plants are still being sold by them, and apparently the biggest, a 35 year old plant is still available.

I bought one from the sale, and I wanted to show you what I got for $20. The Craigslist post is here: http://seattle.craigslist.org/sno/grd/818585005.html . The location is near Perrinville.

Now the 35 year old plant makes mine look small. My previously biggest plants are dwarfed by the one I got.

Hey Rob, This is mine, was a present from a friend, tiny thing then.
She blooms 3 times a year as long as I keep it the same spot, they are finicky as to location, just loves her spot in the window facing, which is Southwest. Cool in morning and hot n afternoon. She loves it.

Very nice plant. Congrats on growing it that large.

I have never found mine finicky about location. Mine are all on the back deck right now. They like being outside in the summer.

Mine has never been outside, It will bloom in 30 days, its working up to it. Can tell when its ready.

I'll try to get a picture of my grandmother's, it is at least equal to the ones on here.

Wow! That's a beauty! Nice find, Rob.
