Easily one of my favorite hybrids and a must have for any collection. Beautiful, soft, recurving leaves with will curl nicely as the plant matures and during periods of underhydration. Dramatic color scheme that includes reds, greens, and yellows, and holds a lovely red blush year round in strong indirect and/or partial direct light
