That's stunning Bruce. I don't think it would do so well here at this time of year.

Re: Cactus Gone Mad

That's a Christmas Cactus Bruce...not a real cactus but a succulent, flowering around Christmas time. I have a similar one.
There is also an Easter one flowering around Easter time....easy to grow from cuttings (leaf sections)
