    Default Den. Speciosum

    Hi everyone. This is my Den Speciosum (peduculatum x V. cura northern star). It originally has 5 spikes but only 3 continued and the two succumbed to slugs or snails I think. Even the largest spike had drooped a bit as it was partially eaten good thing it still continued to open up Cheers!
