    My white Thanksgiving cactus bloomed in October/November and began reblooming in April. My hot pink Easter cactus is a little late. I've never had them in bloom at the same time before :-D Maybe the weird weather has them goofed up :shrug:

    You do have one confused cactus. Nice to have it bloom again. I had a thanksgiving cactus bloom a second time(5 months apart) from branches that did not bloom the first time.

    Mine sit in front of a north window and bloom whenever the light and dark conditions have been met for producing blooms.

    I don't know that I have ever had one bloom when 'they' say it is supposed to. Sometimes that's January, then again in October. This year it was February and we'll see see if it blooms again in November. :rolleyes:
