    Default Cryptanthus 'Pink Star'

    'Red Star' would have made more sense to me. Oh well. It looked like it was going to flower but shortly after this all the buds/bracts turned brown.

    That is really cool. How big is that guy? I know you grow smaller plants, but that bloom looks huge!

    Cheers,
