My Christmas Cactus is early this year

[Terrywoodenpic]

Every thing seems to have lost it's seasonal cycle
Global warming, not covid or brexit or Trump to blame this time.
my Christmas cactus which tries to take over the kitchen
is flowering early this year, might be largely done by Christmas.

Btw...yes...blossoming in December is unusual

They are lovely aren't they...

We used to have a couple in the UK (they went to a good home). One flowered mid winter the other mid springtime but as it aged it became earlier and earlier until it settled on around mid winter time along with its buddy.
