My holiday cactus has new blooms on it / myLot

I don't remember whether it bloomed at Christmas time or not. I was going to check before beginning this current discussion, but I forgot. I guess it bloomed back in November. Now I have to remember to water it more often so it continues to bloom. It's still winter here outside so this will be a refreshing view to have a flower inside for a few months.

Outside the violets, hellebore and primroses are blooming, finally I can see some colors.

Have you tried before? It only blooms once or twice per year.

I always enjoy it when I see blooms. My cacti threw some flowers, and my snow peas are doing so now.

Some people have several but my house is too small for more than one.

It's even nicer when there are more blooms and when they open up

I am delighted when any of my plants bloom even those outside. But it's too early here for those right now.

Right. Can't overeater it but I don't want to under water it either which I sometimes do. When is dormant I tend to forget to water it for weeks at a time.
