Christmas Cactus

At least ten years ago,
Michael's aunt gave us a giant Christmas cactus
that had sat on top of a chest freezer on her porch for decades.
It was in a huge clay pot with the original sand 
from her farm.
In the past few years, it started to look sad,
so this year, I repotted with all new cactus dirt.
It likes it! 
We have several blooms this year
and they are beautiful.
Let's see how long we can keep this plant happy
and how many more years it can grow.
