Looks like my thanks giving cactus! It’s starting to bloom too!

I’ve had success with my Christmas and Thanksgiving cactus by keeping them in a west facing window, one is about a foot away and the other is 3 feet away. I follow Planta’s care schedule. Sometimes I skip a watering if the soil feels too moist.  
They are beautiful plants, enjoy!

Thanksgiving cactus

This is called either a Thanksgiving or sometimes false Christmas cactus but this is really only in North America since thanksgiving is not a thing in the majority of the world.

Below are the correct botanical names.
