    The shape on this is amazing! Are they usually this round??? Also, could you please advise what the leaf span is... I've recently got one and I'm wondering how long I have to wait to get it to blooming size.

    thanks

    They're definitely not this round usually. This was selected out of many for it's form.

    Here's photo of another P. emersonii that is more typical of shape. This one is also a very good clone for it's flatness but not nearly as round.

    I think I prefer the first one, but would not say no to the second one either... I like the fullness of the first flower. Fingers crossed mine is half as good as either!
