DTPS. Little blue bird.
Here is a new member to the collection from the last society meeting. Not sure if it is a mini because it is only a 2yo keiki but its in bloom. Leaves are no more than 6in from leaf tip to leaf tip.

Dorothy I'm not sure on the parentage just yet, it was one of 5 plants that I got from my society meeting last Sunday! The thing that made me want it was someone told me that it would keiki from the base even in good health and my plant was a keiki cut only last year! The thought of more free babies was very enticing & I have noticed 2 keiki's starting to form already!!!
