Xmas cactus

Just around 1st-2nd week of advent, this type of cactus starts blooming. My mom seems to be a genius when it comes to cacti and orchids and getting them to flower like mad. This one is a baby cactus (its 2nd Xmas):

    A beautiful color in this flower.

    Use Niger thistle seed sold in "socks" or stockings to hang on branches around and they will feed from them.

    These are really beautiful. We have a couple of them at home. They haven't stopped blooming.
