Weekly beauty: Christmas cactus

It's not the most spectacular Christmas cactus in the world (I don't really do the whole forced-blooming regimen). But I think it's lovely, and it was a gift from my friend, Rachel Roushey, two years ago. Here's a picture from its recent bloom, and a couple from last year around this time (before I got the prettier pot).












P.S. You may have seen a blank post by this title appear in your reader on Tuesday. This time I can't blame Sami; it was just my own clumsiness in hitting return instead of tab from the title field. C'est la vie.
