Now, she died 18 YEARS AGO. It thrives on neglect, often doesn't bloom at all or blooms at Easter (it's old and confused, like me). When I aquired it, my grandmother had it potted in an old tin Russell Stover hard candy can. Ultimately the can rusted away and I had to repot, and I swear that thing was getting nutrients from the tin can! Maybe I need to find an old Crisco or coffee can (everything today is rustproof aluminum).Jane Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10837023618342835038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17890504.post-1136911442773364762006-01-10T09:44:00.000-07:002006-01-10T09:44:00.000-07:00Ah, it's good to see you posting again - I missed ...Ah, it's good to see you posting again - I missed you!! My mornings aren't the same without our cyber chats, although I've been less than regular about the routine so far since you've been back. Sounds like you had a good AW week - Chapter 7 was a timely one for me too I think. Your Christmas cactus looks great!Pat/SWquilterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18162000167719608507noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17890504.post-1136909904634167882006-01-10T09:18:00.000-07:002006-01-10T09:18:00.000-07:00Welcome home, Hilda.
