Jiffy,
Thanks ...........rhipsalidopsis.......means easter cactus in the flower dictionary.
However if you look at the leaves, it has the jaggered edges, which Easter cactus doesnt have.
I read it has smooth leaves..
The cactus I put up yesterday with peach had that type of leaves......

Help , any pros out there???

Sure looks like Zygocactus truncatus to me. [dunno]

I believe that Rhipsalidopsis has a more star-shaped flower.

Whatever type it is, it's beautiful. Never seen one that color before. Where did you get it? I'd love to get one like it.
