My thanksgiving cactus is flowering for the first time!! I’ve had it for years and it’s been a pretty stagnant. I left it outside all summer and she’s so happy 😍

Yours is so beautiful and big wait till they open!🧡Can't wait for my girl to bloom again, I'm scared to leave her outside because I guess they don't like the sun to be on their leaves? I don't have a lot of shade outside

Someone told me at the beginning of this year when mine was blooming then as well, not to water them when they're blooming because it would make the flowers wilt, because I had flowers that it wilted, so I'm extra careful giving it not too much when it's blooming cuz now I'm all freaked out LOL
