You will see poinsettias everywhere this time of year, and if you are tired of them, you might want to try the easy-to-grow Thanksgiving cactus. You probably have heard them be called Christmas cacti.

There are three species of similar tropical cacti. One blooms in the fall, one in the winter, and one in the spring. They are named after the three holidays of Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Easter.
