photo 14 / 15
Several months after the previous photo, on
this new one the plant is very different ; it spent the summer in the garden,
in the shade of a big tree, the growth was tremendous and we already can see
that we saved a beautiful old plant. We are on November 6th, 2011
(one year after the firdt e-mail) and we miss only one more
photograph so that the happiness of this successful rescue is perfect: the
photograph of the plant in bloom.
But we must not be too impatient: Schlumbergera x buckleyi is a late
bloomer (from December to February). And even if the plant does not bloom
at the beginning of 2012, we should not be too upset with it because
last year, it had a close shave !
