    Very nice, Philippe! I love the deep red and the waxy leaves!

    It's very similar to my Sogo Grape, which is in spike, but it's the slowest growing spike I've ever seen!

    Sogo Grape is very nice too with its round shape.

    It is very difficult to take picture this type of shining colours

    The shiny ones are the absolute hardest to photograph. Light reflected off the petals alters the perceived color. Much like direct sunlight alters the colors when photographing orchids. But with the shiny ones, even low levels of light can be reflected.

    I don't have any brilliant suggestions (pun intended), but you did a nice job with these photos Philippe!
