Today, for no particular reason other than it wanted to, my Christmas cactus is blooming.
Just a month or two ago, we thought we’d lost it. It didn’t bloom at all last year. We thought we killed it when we repotted it last summer. I was heartbroken. It was a present from my sister years ago. She died in 2018, but her heart is here in the flowers she’s given us.
So, it blooms again. Actually it’s thriving. We’ve always said we had an empowerment garden— Our flowers grow if they want to.
