I got a Christmas cactus from my mother who got it from her mother-in-law before I was born, in 1950. So my cactus is over 66 years old! It's the fushia color flower, but the leaves are rounded along the sides instead of having points. It's about 36" accross and is very thick and brown in the main stems. It blooms regularly every year and seems to "shed" periodically during the year. I love it and hope to give it to one of my children someday. It's pretty amazing!!
