Golden Barrel Cactus - NOT amateur radio

This was seen at the Cambridge University Botanical Garden earlier in the week.

My wife has her birthday later this week. This cactus is always in flower for her birthday. It is in our hall. 

I think it is called a Christmas cactus, although ours is always in flower in November.

Usually in time for Christmas, this cactus flowers. This year it is early and glorious. My wife has a magic touch!
