Hi Don,
Nice flowers!
I agree with others that the first photo seems to be the best of the
three. For my taste, the second one would have benefited from a bit more
space around it, especially at the bottom. But that's my taste.
My mom has had such flowers for many years (and still has) at her home.
The interesting thing is the name. In Russia they are called
"decembrist", primarily because they bloom in December.
I also remember somebody in Texas using the same name.
I googled, and found some references to that name being used in Brazil.
But it looks like most people in the US call it "thanksgiving"
or "christmas" cactus.
Igor

is Thanksgiving anyway.
Please ignore the hideous watermarks. Other C&C welcomed.
