Isn't this pretty?
I was given this Christmas cactus by an elderly lady who had won it in a raffle, and decided that I should have it.
It was such a surprise.
I have never had one before but admired them on other windowsills.
Its proper name is Schlumbergera, but I think Christmas cactus suits it better.
It seems to have a lot of buds, and I've looked up on a website as to how it needs to be treated.
A friend said airily 'Oh, it's bomb proof, you don't need to worry about it'.
I hope she's right!
Thank you for your kind good wishes. The virus turned out to be much nastier than I had expected, but I'm gradually recovering, though I dare not drive at the moment as the light headedness sometimes returns. I'm slowly getting the house ready for Christmas, a wreath on the front door, my little Christmas tree decorated....little by little.
