Default Pot. Hoku Gem 'Freckles'

This little one has been blooming for awhile now. I've just been too lazy to take pictures until today. When the flowers first open the background is kind of a red/orange color. As the flower matures it turns into this pretty bright yellow. It would have had 5 flowers but I was on vacation when it shot out this spike and the top 3 got toasted on my T5 light. Can't wait for next year's show!

Mine (Pot. Titan's Fire) has just gone into bud after two years of great growths. So maybe you won't get one next year? Still haven't figured out these guys.
