Wow!!!..Ty GardenGuyKin. And everyone else, ty so much for the comments. Grandmotto, I keep this cactus outdoors. It receives flitered morning and afternoon sun. This photo was taken a few weeks ago. And believe it or not I am seeing new growth and what appears to be new blooms forming. I have never heard of a cactus blooming twice in a season..... We shall see!
