    So pretty.

    I think we have one in bud. It might be a cross, but it is almost open. I saw the 'brain' pouch yesterday when snaping photos in the greenhouse.

    Cheers,

    I almost got one of these before, and they are very expensive. But I was told that they
    are cool growers, a condition that i can't provide. So Im left to admiring them in the
    comfort of my computer screen. thanks for sharing this

    Talk about contrast! Looks freaky but still bautiful. Love the colours.

    Wow!!! This just may be the most intensely colored venustum I've ever seen in a photo. Michael, this plant deserves a clonal name!

    Cheers,
