Colorful Thanksgiving cactus

Thanksgiving cactus (cacti?) can be so colorful even when they’re not blooming. Mine is currently growing new leaves and they turn bright pink in direct sunlight.

I bought this thanksgiving cactus (Schlumbergera truncata) because I’ve missed the gorgeous blooms they get every winter. I’ve owned several of these in the past. This time I bought one with red and one with white flowers and they’re surprisingly different. The white ones don’t open fully, but look like little roses, while the red ones are just like I remember them – very flamboyant.
