This Christmas cactus hasn't bloomed once in the several years I've had him. Now he's spilling all over the place.

I'm sure there's a name for this cactus, but I don't know what it is. We'll just call it a Fred. This exotic Fred cactus is putting out a ton of gorgeous flowers. Between the two, they make me want to ditch my geraniums and hibiscus and cover the balcony in cacti. I wonder if this is what the desert looks like right now? Maybe I should take the kids out this weekend to see.
