For this weeks 🌺 Flowering Friday 🌸 we have...
The Christmas Cactus (Schlumbergera bridgesii) 🌿 with these big, beautifully striking fuchsia flowers!
It is know to flower 🌼 from December onwards (hence the name), however mine has just started up now all will probably carry on flowering throughout the year.
Although being called a cactus 🌵, it is not as drought tolerant as you might thing and likes to be
watered 💦 frequently during growth periods.
It is really easy to take cutting from these guys too, making it easy to end up with a lovely little forest of them ! 💚🌴
