Christmas Cactus? Really?

Ok, so about 6 years ago - just before the Christmas holidays - I went to a K-Mart in VA and bought a little christmas cactus that was about to finish blooming. What a great buy right - you don't have to water it very often and it blooms every year around the holidays. Well, the year I brought it home was the last year I saw any blooms on it.

I have tried placing it in different areas of my apartment/house....replanting it in different pots...giving it fertilizer....and I may have talked to it once - but I was probably using a threatening tone at that point.

Well, this year when we had some family over at the beginning of December for Sam's birthday. My grandmother told me that I obviously had it in the wrong place in the house. Oh well, I thought - at least I haven't killed it yet. My hope for it to bloom had been long gone so I left it where it was. Well wouldn't you know - it's decided to bloom! Ok, it's a couple months late - but wow, I forgot how beautiful it looks in bloom. Check it out...
That's a money plant beside it. We're still waiting for it to produce some bills - or even some change. We'll take whatever we can get.
