oh no, I wasn't going to put it outside until it's warm enough here - a good month or two (sorry that wasn't clear in the orig post). I'm mostly wondering about how I should be watering it, since normally after flowering I would withhold water for a few months. Thank you pirategirl. I'm a bit north of you, so it'll be a good month or two before I can put my plant out. I'll also water sparingly after it's done blooming. I was just so surprised to see the blooms, I wasn't sure what to do.

Emi, these plants really are opportunistic bloomers, and will bloom when conditions are favorable. My own Christmas cacti tend to have just one long bloom window from late December through early March, but I've read reports of these plants blooming three times a year. There is also the less likely chance that it is a stress-bloom, when the plant "senses" that it is about to die, and thus throws blooms out in a last ditch effort to produce seed and reproduce itself. But if you've been growing these plants for many years, you would recognize such a thing. Josh

luvs...what wonderful tables. I love the snow couple. They are darling. I like all your pretty dishes, and esp the very pretty scalloped blue one. The red poinsettia and the white napkin go nicely with it. I have a set of place mats like your snowman ones..only mine are Flower pots and I use them quite often. They are very durable. I throw them in the washer/dryer and they come out perfectly. Once again...love all your tables, they are all so cheerful. jane
