Just lost all it's leaves for some reason. Strange timing, really, since it didn't get neglected in any way. You have me looking to see if I have a spot to put one now, as I really liked that plant. It never went outside though. My Christmas cactus and orchid cactus do though. The orchid cactus blooms while it's outside each year. I leave the Christmas cactus out until the weatherman threatens us with frost over night, then I bring it in and it sets buds right away. I laughingly say we should call it my Thanksgiving Cactus instead.Yabuthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15450215380644729572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5222945587640777221.post-74249250169048593052014-04-21T10:32:15.281-04:002014-04-21T10:32:15.281-04:00We keep thinking about getting some fig trees but ...We keep thinking about getting some fig trees but it is really tricky planting out here we have the opposite problem extreme heat and drought, so far the best thing to plant is succulents everything else really doesn't do well. ~Enjoy your fig tree!
