Beautiful! Do you think it is exactly because you're not caring for it that it flowers so well? Maybe it's a survival mechanism kicking it - don't plants flower profusely if they feel threatened in an attempt to propagate themselves? |

Benign neglect seems to work for some plants. I never fuss my amaryllis, put them outside in Summer, bring them back in Autumn, add a little MiracleGro to the water occasionally if I think of it, and they just keep blooming ..... |

That's a lovely cactus Moli - certainly it must thrive on neglect. Don't they always say the right plant in the right place will do very well? |
