Not that I have the secret to making them bloom but here's what I tried and it worked...
- pruned back about two leaflets in spring
- kept in the shade (lesser light) through the summer
- moved to more light in December
- fertilized once early in December then let it dry out
- only watered about once every two weeks
- watched it bloom like a happy houseplant should
Thanks to Debbie for giving us this start from the Portland motherload cactus.

Wow, that is so pretty! Way to go! I would have killed if for sure!
How pretty! I wish I could keep plants alive. It is definitely a talent.
oooohhh! I like it. Sure is a pretty houseplant!
Ithink mine is going to bloom again for easter. I just need to keep little fingers away from it.
