Dysstroma truncata (Hufnagel, 1767)
Schlumbergera truncata 'gold charm.' Definitely a yellowish cast, although it seems a bit pink as well.
December 14, 2007.
Schlumbergera truncata, Zygocactus or more commonly Christmas Cactus.
I purchased this plant during the 2013 holiday season from a local hardware store. Within a few days, all the buds fell off.
After that I did what the salesperson told me, "pretty much ignore it, hardly water, and place where it gets filtered light." Two years later, in March 2015, the plant developed buds! It has bloomed every year since.
