Xmas in April and Begonias, too.

This is my mother’s Christmas cactus.  I inherited it when she died in 2008.  It always bloomed at Christmas.

Since I’ve had it it begins blooming around Thanksgiving through Christmas.  But this year it bloomed through Christmas and then stated blooming again.  Maybe it’s my mother’s spirit if you believe. It never bloomed for my mother.

I have always loved begonias.  They are so pretty to me. I’ve had this one a year or two. I love to watch them die back in the winter and then  begin growing in the spring.

  1. Love seeing these flowers. There is something so lovely about the Christmas Cactus blooming for you and having them remind you of your mother. Whether it is spirit or the beautiful stirrings of the human heart remembering, those flowers are truly grand. Nice begonias too!
