CHRISTMAS CACTUS

Several years ago, my "boys" gave me for Christmas, a beautiful. bright  red Christmas Cactus in a pretty white wicker basket.  It bloomed faithfully each year around Christmas.  Although I almost threw it out for lack of luster and almost dying.  I gave it a chance and attention through this past year.  It rewarded me with the most blooms ever---at THANKSGIVING, could not wait till Christmas.  I enjoyed it, for it was so pretty.  Imagine my surprise when buds began to form last week.  It is in full bloom for a second time, just in time for Christmas. Maybe you have had the same experience?  I am enjoying it for the second time.  Will it do it again?  Just shows me how a little TLC can go a long way.
