C. Penang 'Black Caesar'

[POLKA]

beautiful, gorgeous plant! <slobber> <grin>

But, I just can't say that this is Penang 'Black Caesar'

It is something much better!
Can't place it right now, but I've seen that plant recently.

Carmela has them for sale

T-3775 C. Penang 'Black Caesar'-4" pot

Click on the link above whether you want to buy one from them, or at least know why I think that this gorgeous plant in the pictures above is not C Penang. That one above is something much better.

I'm beginning to believe that dougr 's plant is Dean Martin 'Gigas'

any ideas?

They have been in the market the past four years along with Penang --

And, I've often had mis-labeled plants from Hawaii on our raffle table at the local society.

Thanks, they are a joy to me right now.

they are huge plants in 4" inch pots too...This is exactly where mine came from was Carmelas. Except for the specials which are smaller plants overall the ordered plants are always much larger than you imagined they possibly could be .

Most of them have bloomed already or will bloom as they are mature plants. I even got 5 dollars off each one last time from the online prices ...
