Hobbies / Books   (Gardening, walking, books, films, theatre etc.)

I know this is a bit late Dougie..but I have a Christmas cacti that flowers every Winter,but I keep mine upstairs all year away from daylight until it comes into bud then I bring it down to enjoy the gorgeous flowers..I was always under the belief and also read that they hadn't to see any form of daylight during the dormant period in order to flower..but you have really knocked that theory in the head haven't you..not to believe everything you read..
