Schlumbergera question
Comments (4)Here's the other plant. The leaves are thicker and a little larger, too. It is also a younger plant, if that matters. Yep - that is salt water in my back yard. Actually, it is considered brackish. This is a man-made cove/lake that connects to the Gulf at the mouth of the Caloosahatchee River. I get dolphins and manatees cruising by. Fishing is good, too. We have a sea wall, not a beach. We get tides, but only get waves when a big storm is blowing. Maybe my plant is fine and I shouldn't be comparing them. Kind of like my mother comparing my tall skinny brother to my not-so-tall and definitely not-so-skinny self! LOL...See MoreSchlumbergera question: Liberty or Thor?

Comments (1)Bob Smoleys has them. But no pictures online. Whitton has pictures, but isn't in Fl. Between the two, I can get names/images. Smoleys has bad ratings in service, so I was planning a trip up there to buy them in person. I know Laura1 was interested, anyone else?

Comments (38)Glad you did, I am getting some cuttings of Easter and Thanksgiving cactus shortly through a trade and was looking for rooting information. My plan is to pot them all together, and add different colors later on as I find ones I like. My space is such I can accomadate one larger plant, but can't be asked to pick which color I like best! Forgive me for not reading the entire thread, but is that pure bark you have planted in? I am lucky on that I can get a lot of potting components easily where I live, would fine orchid bark be good? Shoukd I root in that, or something else?...See MoreBillMN-z-2-3-4
