The last of the my christmas cactus blossoms have fully opened.  The rest have already started to shrivel up and go limp. Still, the remaining blossoms overflow with pollen. It is beautiful.  Just like the season of giving, the season of winter blossoms is coming to an end.

Fortunately, it seems that I have other blossoms in my future. My orchid has buds which are starting to swell.  I can’t wait.
