Got this one last week from Carib Plants. Of about 30 plants in bloom, this one had the best coloring, as well as the best form! The first pic shows accurate color. If you hold the plant next to the picture, they look identical. I'm not kidding, it truly GLOWS orange. The second pic is to better show the form of the blooms. Thanks for looking!
Accurate color:

Very, very nice, Gage! You certainly chose well, that's a beautiful plant that will be truly amazing in 4-5 years. Please keep me in mind if you ever lop off a basal growth.

Beautiful choice! I love these and you are right about the orange 'glowing' my minatum is just as orange when it flowers.

Thanks, Nat! Thanks, Nenella!
There were several plants with 2, 3, or 4 growths, and many with 3 spikes. But I chose this one for the blooms.  |
