This is Schlumberga Buckleyi, the Rare True Christmas Cactus is a very hard to find, and highly sought after. Her mother plant dates back to the late 1800’s according to the last owner. Today, most if not all holiday cacti commercially marketed during the Fall in greenhouses and garden centers everywhere are improperly labeled “Christmas Cactus” but are most likely the common “Thanksgiving Cactus”. The distinct upside down Christmas Tree shape of the clade (segment) is the identifier of a True Christmas Cactus. Instructions on propagation and care will accompany these fresh clippings. You will receive 4-6 stems (clippings) based on availability at the time of your order. This rare beauty born from the Rain Forests of the Brazil region is now in limited supply. She WILL go fast. The recent price change is reflective of that.
