Blooming indoors. Difficult to really capture the color on this. Blue-ish or pale lavender depending on lighting; the blue-ish color is why I wanted to add this to my collection. A light pleasant fragrance. The classic droopy “ears“ of the mossiae. Putting out 4 new growths so hoping next springtime will be a fuller display.

😆 haha. I like that DC…and I won’t be able to get that outta my head now each time it blooms. Kinda like that super coveted Philodendron spiritus-sancti ; with the exaggerated rabbit ears. Reminds me of a loony-tunes era cartoon character but i just can’t place it. An online photo of one in case you aren’t familiar with it…
