That would make it an Easter Cactus then ?
Quote:
Certain plants are associated with Easter. Though the Easter lily is commonly sold at that time the spring-blooming Easter cactus is also available.
Some people may confuse the Easter cactus with the Christmas cactus. They require the same sort of care. All of the holiday cacti are short day plants, meaning they’ll bloom when the days are short.
Though all the holiday cacti may look somewhat alike there are ways to tell them apart. Easter cactus has pointed margins. This contrasts with Christmas cactus, which has either scalloped or rounded leaf margins.
