Thanksgiving Cactus

10 years ago

i have had it for just over a year, brought it back from almost nothing, TONS of green growth but no flowers,it is growing strait up not leaning over to much yet. it is in a good draining planting mix and gets tons of indirect light. do i need to give it something? or is it just a waiting game since it was so far gone?

If you brought it back, it probably just needed some time to get healthy. Put it outside in the shade this summer. Bring it in before frost a and you should have blooms this fall.
