Small to medium sized tightly clumping plants that flower in the fall and spring on newly matured growths. The flowers are 1.5 inches across and occur on branching upright inflorescences that may hold 40+ flowers once mature. Large plants flower 2 times a year and rapidly form large specimens once provided with the proper care and plentiful fertilizer.
Congratulations Miki I. for earning honorable mention with her specimen at the October 2015 NVOS meeting.
