Cactus flower

I had some uncertainty about the name of this flower, but Isabel (Xata) has kindly confirmed that it is called "Christmas Cactus". It's flowering prolifically at present (see also PiP).

Schlumbergera truncata (Xmas cactus)
Beautiful... at my place they all die, I dont know, maybe it is me they dont like because I have tried to have it in different places and they all end dead, inside or outside !!!!

Thank you for your kind comment, Isabel, also for confirmation on the ID. Sorry I can't give any help on growing them though, mine are neglected apart from occasional watering.

It is a pretty spectacular performer, George. A real treasure for the garden. Hope you are keeping busy and well. We are like two creatures possessed doing so much…
Will write soon. Love and giant hugs from us both …D
