Day 26 - a Year by the Sea

Beware Plant Gone Wild! This is our Christmas Cactus ( Schlumbergera hybrid ) . It has been dull of late. and there were no buds for this Christmas. We have had an irregular relationship with this plant over the years. Some years - no blooms. Some years a few non-showy flowers. Once before it went nuts. A week after Christmas, it woke up. Someone obviously fed it plant hormones and now it’s showing off its goodies. Plant Gone Wild. The lushness is even more lurid because this morning it was 3 degrees Fahrenheit outside. Cold and barren 8 inches beyond that window. 8 inches the other way and the jungle invades our living room.

Ciao!
