	schlumbergera Factsheet - Gardening Australia - ABC
		Schlumbergera are true cacti and the species grow on rocks and trees in rainforests of South America.
		Schlumbergera flower year after year and provide a brilliant burst of colour in the winter months, but the flowering season is short.
		Schlumbergera require little work and make eye catching indoor pot plants or hanging baskets and this is an ideal way to show off the trailing flowers.

	Schlumbergera
		Some flowers of Schlumbergera are actinomorphic, that is, their floral parts radiate out from the centre of the bloom equally in all directions.
		Schlumbergera ‘Bristol Princess’ Plant growth, and large, pendant flower shape, like the plant above, is similar to Schlumbergera ‘Bristol Belle’.
		The colour of the bloom is the same as Schlumbergera ‘Lavender Doll’, but the flower is shorter, and the petals are broader, also the stem segments are shorter.

		Schlumbergera truncata grows in the rain forest at an altitude between 3,000 and 5,000 feet, rooting into decaying organic debris trapped among tree branches or in rocky crevices on the ground in shady areas.
		Schlumbergera bridgesii grows at higher mountain altitudes in cooler, dryer wooded areas.
		The two species are similar except Schlumbergera truncata has 2-4 'saw-toothed' serrates along the phylloclade margins, cylindrical ovaries, and yellow anthers while Schlumbergera bridgesii has dentate margins, 4-5 angled ovaries, and purple anthers.

	RECOGNITION and CULTURE of the HOLIDAY CACTI
		The name Schlumbergera bridgesii, still seen occasionally, was mistakenly published for it very early, and only in 1964 was the plant's proper history and correct designation traced and reestablished by Will Tjaden, a member of the Epiphytic Plant Study Group in England.
		It is not nearly as popular as the Schlumbergeras because it is rather more difficult to grow well, and it has the disconcerting habit of shedding its phylloclades (stem segments) at the slightest draught, or whenever over- or under-watered.
		Schlumbergeras are not much bothered by bugs, although Mealy Bugs and Root Mealy Bugs might appear if one gets a little careless.
