My mom had one that thrived for over 40 years.

Mine has bloomed already and I’ve never been so confused. It’s bloomed early before but never around (Canadian) Thanksgiving, I should adjust my thermostat lol.

Mine is quite obviously a Bloom When It Damn Well Pleases Cactus.

Mine too. I have a white one that’s been in full bloom for a few days now and a pink one I expect in the next week. I didn’t think there were any varieties that were that early, but I’ve got em.
Need to get some Easter ones, then they’ll bloom in December.
