Thanksgiving Cactus

Well over a decade ago, I bought this and another “Christmas” cactus at a yard sale, the two for a dollar.

The woman selling them complained that they had stopped blooming. She still didn’t want to keep them even after I explained that they only bloom once a year.

I brought them home and tended them. They have bloomed faithfully every Thanksgiving or a little closer to the solstice, getting more luxuriant.
