Christmas Cactus

I am one of those people who like to get all the Christmas preparations completed by the end of November. Then on December weekends I can sit with a book in front of a blazing log fire and with a sympathetic smile think of all those millions fighting for a parking space and desperately searching in John Lewis.
Although the development of internet shopping has somewhat modified that 1960s vision of the world.
But getting the Schlumbergia to flower in time is all part of the game.
Note, please ignore the word Cyclamen which crept into the picture.
