AnswerFred,
I would really need to see a picture to identify it. If you can, send one to
[email protected]. As far as making it flower, if it is some type of "christmas cactus", put it in a very dark room for about 3 weeks prior to Thanksgiving. That should trick it into believing winter has occurred and it should then flower.
But, it may not flower every year depending on all kinds of variables. If you get the chance, e-mail me a picture and I will try to identify it for you. Thanks.
