    This is about Schlumbergera not me. I am not a Schlumbergera. Although Mrs Sarra says that,given my way I would live in a schlum (I think that's the word). And since working as Brad Pitt's stunt double, the studio won't let me do photos without payment. Cash please not cheques. ;) :D

    Roders - that amazing.

    How do you even get at the contained below to polish it. Do you fed it - and if so what? I have never grown one.

    Roders, that is really lovely, and to have a beautiful reminder of your mother must be really special [​IMG]

    That is gorgeous roders! A lot more buds to still open too, a real show.

    I thought mine was looking nice when we got back off holiday end of last week, but now ............

    A question, is yours rather pot-bound? mine is/are.
