Beautiful plant and photo Scarecrow, got one in my front room window, it's a red one. I think it's called an Epiphyllum Cactus but Mick will tell you better  |

Can I ask, seeing as I haven't a clue about cacti.... I've got one flowering for the first time [well there is one bud left after my drunk brother dropped it and knocked a flower and bud off  . Is it a good sign that it is flowering? I completely neglect them I'm afraid, and I thought it might be trying a last gasp at life!  I only bought them to stop me putting things up on the ledge [don't hit me Mick....  ] ;D I gave them some baby bio today, was that a mistake? |

Jonah, always a good sign when they are flowering. Big flower, small flower? Colour?
Baby bio is OK although it wouldn't be my choice but then I do have 500+ to look after. Quarter strength tomato food is fine.

Hi Mick Here's a pic:  It's still in the 2-3 inch pot that I bought it in  . Should I repot it? I'm actually amazed any of them are still alive. Can you tell me what it is please? |
