Thanks, puglvr! It's maybe not as bloomy as the parents, but once I get it repotted and pruned next spring we'll see how it does then. If it doesn't shape up, out it goes. juliana, maybe we would have to do it after you get back, or try to fit in a mailing before you go. I have to look at the weather before May 15, but sometimes it can work earlier than that. Just remind me about it in April and we'll go from there. I'm thinking of repotting all my cc's and giving them a prune job, so it wouldn't be hard to put a couple of the trimmings in an envelope. Anyway, earlier would fit better for me if the weather cooperates. Once it's nice out, I had better be done with the fussing with the house plants because the acre veg garden calls.

I've always been told that 'C' is a fallacy, that burning thru a magnified drop of water is hogwash. I'm not the most careful waterer, some of my plants are in a west window w/ direct sun. I'm sure I leave some drops of water on the leaves (except AVs) & that does not happen. I'm more inclined to think it's from uneven water take-up (maybe pockets of compact, dry soil in the mix/rootball, preventing some of the roots from getting water). Once in a while, I'll see a damaged segment or 2 like that, if it's on the tip of the branch, I remove it. Otherwise, I ignore it. As long as the rest of the plant is healthy (which looks it), I'd ignore it.

I have two hanging cactus plants that I would like to identify. The plants resemble Christmas etc only one has very large leaves and blooms with tiny little pale yellow blooms all around the leaf at each point. the other has smaller twisted leaf with a yellow bloom at the end of a stem and then a round bulbus growth in it's place. I can take pictures of them as they are now, but lost pictures of the blooms when my computer crashed. Thanks for any help you can give.

I am still in search of True Christmas Cactus as well as Plumeria and have the following plant cuttings for trade - Zygo Cactus (Orange, Pink, and Fucia), String of Bananas, Swedish Ivy Begonia, Graptoverias (Fred Ives), Graptosedums, Jade, and Hedera Helix Ivy (Ingrid Liz). Just let me know if you are interested.
