This is a "dwarf" schombo. It has been reclassified as Myrmecho-something-or-other. This is one of the hollow pbulb sorts.

The plant is only about 8 inches tall, but only the bloom stalks reach up about 24 to 30 inches. The is one of the shortest schombos.

Glad you liked

I like these mini-schombos. How long is the spike?
