I'm so impressed!<br /><br />xo<br />Donna @ Comin' HomeDonnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00944882257793647449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8691571266965782093.post-57159038290919372012010-11-08T21:12:04.726-05:002010-11-08T21:12:04.726-05:0050 years!!!

I then gave it to our good friend Mary, who made it bloom and always showed me my mom's Christmas cactus when I came to visit her. Then she died, too. I stayed with both of them while they died. It is a beautiful blooming plant full of hope in the dark of winter, yet it is a plant of death to me, my mom and our best friend. Wow, so sorry to bring you down, but a good blog post evokes strong memories, good or bad. It is the mark of a good writer. I would much rather read this than something that leaves me completly cold!Ginny Hartzlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09329131153403895625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8691571266965782093.post-88571996331308785712010-11-08T21:11:47.653-05:002010-11-08T21:11:47.653-05:00I have a white one in bloom.

The plants are a favorite of mine.Elainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08628980021701932725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8691571266965782093.post-34700036216395647492010-11-08T20:01:36.136-05:002010-11-08T20:01:36.136-05:00Hi Kerrie, we too grow a lot of zygocactus, they a...Hi Kerrie, we too grow a lot of zygocactus, they are so lovely when in bloom.
