    Default Bulb. rothschildianum 'Red Chimney' FCC/AOS

    Last year at our show several fellow members brought this plant to me and asked if they should buy it. I told every one of them they should but they still put it back. It was still there on the last day of the sale so I got it for myself. SO glad I did! 5 new leads and 5 spikes!!

    Outside for the summer and greenhouse for the winter. It gets very bright light with night temps around 55 in the winter.It's planted in an 8 inch basket with bark base medium.
