What beautiful blooms, Sandra! They look so delicate, one can almost see through them. It looks as if there will soon be many more blooms. The plants must love being where you've hung them.
I think that the second image in the first post is the same as the first image in the second post? Is there another image somewhere that you'd intended to put in place of one of those?

the Christmas cactus version of the zygocactus are blooming! I wonder if anyone had bred mid-season versions so we can have these beautiful flowers every season!

That's a great idea, Sandra.
I find that those plants bloom at a different time here than they is expected. I think blooming might be triggered by day length. I'm far enough north that our days are shorter sooner, and stay short longer, than locations farther south.
