The Whole Glox.

Looks like a gloxinia..is it?

That it is, had to let out the cat so I didn't label very fast......lol. A real bargain, this thing is huge. Still living by the sink. It will move in by the saintpaulias soon, I'm trying not to move the christmas cactus as the buds form.

My Christmas, Thanksgiving and crab cactus are all upstairs where I am not keeping the heat on and they are living with day light only..they are setting buds like crazy..they should be gorgeous this year..am surprised by how well they are doing..it is much cooler up there..will not want to bring in to a warm room suddenly I am sure...

The cool stimulates them very well. I've been trying to bloom my easter cactus for so long that these christmas ones are like a breeze. They lost their blooms last year when I brought them home, so they aren't moving until february. :-) Definately post when they come. :-)

I will have to get a photo..hope they get a chance to all bloom this year..looking very nice so far..

Lovely plant, a good purchase. My Christmas cactus is full of blooms too :)

Thank Gee. I'm very excited about her. :-) Sound like about a month and the pages of schlumbergera blooms will begin. :-)

I love these. Haven't grown them for a while now. I'll have to try them again next year

This is my first Hywel. I'm really fascinated by it, though its size is so far hard to manage. Such a nice deep green. I hope the next bunch of blooms are more prepared for the house environment, the first seemed very tender.

I always grew them indoors. I like the mauve ones best.

I just snapped it up for the price! :-) It came from a greenhouse to the garden center, just not ready for the house. I'm more encouraged now that it'll do better next go around.

gorgeous

Thank you. I'm a proud new parent. -)
