Hrwa. 'Lava Burst' Puanani

[Dollythehun]

I got this from Sophie's last winter. This is the first blooming. Notice the pen, for comparison.

I love this one! I had one years back and it is long gone. I would replace it if I ever found it easy.

[Dollythehun]

What did you find hard about it? Mine gets bright light and water when the moss approaches dryness. For me, it's been pretty easy-going.

[fishmom]

No, I mean easy to replace, like I came across a plant at a show or nursery. Although there must have been something hard about it, since it died under my care. Maybe irregular watering? Since I don't use moss very much.

[Dollythehun]

I know Sophie's still has them. I put it in moss because it was difficult to keep moist due to it's size.

[fishmom]

Thanks, I'll check it out.

I often see this one at shows! Very cute! If it was fragrant, it would be quite perfect.

[Dollythehun]

It's not but small is key now. Otherwise I'll have to send Charlesf6 the rest of my collection. Lol

[Pattywack]

Beautiful plant and such a gorgeous color on the flowers. Very nice!

It has a light fragrance. Mine is flowering right now, too. It's only spectacular from nearby, though. From a distance the spikes are dull, unless in direct sunshine.

It's a new acquisition, still don't know if it will make the local summers.
