So, I have this rather sad, neglected Christmas cactus (Schlumbergera) that has decided to bloom for me – in two different colours, no less! Just to be clear, this is the same plant producing blooms of different colours. Has anyone encountered this before? I’m not troubled by it – just curious as to why. Is this an example of reversion?

Hi. Yes, I also have a christmas cactus that I bought with bright fuschia coloured flowers. The next time that they bloomed, they presented me with THREE different colours on the same plant! I was amazed. A part bloomed in bright deep pink, part in an orangy red shade and another in white tinged with soft pink. It then went on to bloom again at easter with only deep pink flowers, and then as that wasn’t enough, it has bloomed again in the summer with brilliant white flowers. It keeps me fascinated.

I have one that blooms with some red and some coral colored flowers. I loveit!

Mine bloomed with white and peach. It’s odd too. It bloomed in March. They said it was a Christmas cactus, but turns out it’s an Easter cactus
