I wasn't sure I liked these when I first saw them. But the more I look the more I like them.
Very cute little flowers. Great contrast on the lip. Very waxy looking green pettals.
They really are very cute, and you've taken a great pic to show them off.

Beautiful Tom, thanks for sharing! How large are flowering sized plants? Or do they flower at a certain age? Can't wait for mine to flower, bought it 1 1/2 month ago.

Gorgeous blooms! I'm almost tempted to have one myself, especially since I know exactly where to buy one...

Those are beautiful blooms, Tom. Are they fragrant?
