If the photos don't do them justice then I'd love to see them in person! They're gorgeous!  |

Very striking, Gloria.  Have you had this very long? And how large is the plant? Certainly one to watch for.

It's been about 3 years now, Shirley.
It's actually a very well behaved plant, compact in it's type of growth, sorta large compact, kinda hard to explain. Not sure how tall it really stands, I have not measured it - maybe 10in height. I can take a photo of it, If you like.
This one, likes the sunshine all day long - southwest facing, along with the hot tempts, likes the cool down in in fall. It seems to breeze right thru anything, blooms off new bulbs. Drinks like a fish in the summer.
Got mine from paramount.

Thanks, Gloria. Sounds like a nice sized plant to have and I'll be adding it to my wish list. When you have the time and inclination, would love to see full
