Sometimes Monday ...


... is a beautiful day despite the very gloomy, gray, rainy, and dreary weather. I haven't been in MD for two weeks, so I was delighted to be greeted by my Christmas cactus when I stepped into the "plant room".


My SiL divided hers (it was twice as big as this one) and gave me half last year. I put it in what I hoped was a good location, and it looks like the plant has been happy with its new home. I'm so glad I didn't miss the show.
  

 Flowers are indeed magical!

  4. WOW, just WOW! What a nice greeting on your arrival, and I can't believe that thing bloomed the first year. You must have a green thumb, Bonny.

  9. Oh so lovely. I saw some awesome orchids at a friends place Saturday. It is very very gloomy indeed outside in Wisconsin the past few days.

  13. I have cactus envy this year - between you and Vicki, at least I can enjoy them vicariously. (Does John water the plants while you're away?)

  14. Gorgeous cactus. I saw some small ones at Trader Joe's last week and thought of you. The flowers on this one are such a soft pink. I am glad you didn't miss the show!
