Oooh! Such delicate looking blooms!!

I like how it looks like it's crawling out of the basket at the roots, too.

Looks great, Bruce! Do you know the cross? I'm assuming it has a Neo as a parent...

Default HI!

Not to steal Bruce's thunder, but it is:

Rainbow Gem = Neo. falcata x Ascda. Flambeau.

I'm getting to really like the Neo crosses. I can bloom them, unlike the straight species. My Neo is huge and hasn't bloomed once in the three years I've had it.
