I just love these Ctna. Why Not crosses. This one has some great color but the flowers are not held very well. It has very tall stems from both parents and lots of flowers. It was also very hard to photograph.

It is a beauty. My C. Why not is in bloom now too! Those bright colors are hard to capture. I took 15 shots of a flowering airplant last weekend and not one shot came out. It was a bright purple almost glowing.

The plant could take more light than you are giving it, the flowers would then display better. Early staking is also important. Kenni

Thanks Kenni! I will take your suggestions. This is one of the plants that I got from you and it really loves to grow. At the same time, I also bought six neo. hybrids that have done wonderfully. Rlla. Sugar Baby is on its third flowering this summer and it has multiple spike on a large clustering plant.
