Question
I want a true Christmas cactus (Schlumbergera x buckleyi)  for my mother but I can't seem to find one.  She remembers as a child her mother having one but can't remember what happened to it.  I purchased a Holiday cactus for her but she informed me that the plant of her mothers didn't have spikes but rounded edges.  I googled it and sure enough she was right(I hate that).  But now I can't seem to find it.        

Can you please help me?

Answer
Crystal,

Here is the website of a very reliable online dealer that may be able to help you: http://www.bobsmoleys.com/ He has a lot of Schlumbergeras in his website but I do not now if any are Schlumbergera x buckleyi. I suggest that you email him and ask if he has any. I do have one but I do not have any rooted starts off of it at the moment. I might be able to have one for you in the spring if you let me know that you still need one. Good luck.
