As the days grow shorter the plants receive less light so they bloom around Thanksgiving or Christmas. I've never separated mine though. When a piece breaks off they are very easy to root.

I have a cactus, not sure if it's a christmas or Thanksgiving cactus but it has never bloomed. It belonged to my husbands mother and I received it when she passed.What am I doing wrong? Also how would I go about seperating it? Its kinda big and someone said it may be too crowded in the pot it is in. Thank you May I ask how do you get them to flower?
