I wonder why this was named as such? I don't relish Ho, but the colors are nice. I probably would never buy one of these just because...

Both species are native to Vietnam. The cross was named by Herr Popow in Germany so perhaps he thought it was a homage to the revolutionary leader of modern, united Vietnam. There doesn't seem to be a lot of love for him from our Vietnamese immigrants!

You have some great plants. That is a great example of that crossing and it's rare to find one better. I have a few and hopefully will one day see them flower.
