Dana - This one is truly too cute! 
Where did you get this little one from? |

And tonight she's joined by her little sister! This is a sibling to the first flower; it's a little smaller and a little darker purple, but it's still opening, so it may get a tad bigger. I've pictured it here with the first one to flower in the background so you can have a basis of comparison.

 WOW ! thank you it's amazing to see such a "wee" plant with such a big colourful flower on it !!
Is it scented ?
have you had it long? I think I'm going to find one for myself as I'm starting to 'run out of space' !!!!!!!
Thanks for posting the pics!

No smell that I could detect. I haven't had the plant all that long, less than a month.
All of the pics of flowers that I've posted over the last couple weeks, the plants have all been under 6" tall - I am trying to collect minis and micros. I'm loving the fact that I can fit so many more plants into my growing space!
I just ordered three more of these guys.. That one is just so fantastic, I wanted more as soon as i saw it. I'd love to grow that plant out to specimen size and see it covered with those purple blooms!

Hahaha awesome. Actually I ordered from them recently; seems like they're sold out of most of their stuff (they had some stuff that I really wanted, too! But I did manage to do a bit of damage to my bank account anyway 
Admittedly, I've discovered more plants and crosses that I think look really neat, and so perhaps I'm due to give their list another look over.. hee hee |
