Info | This is a very unusual looking plant that would be a perfect choice for a pot since it has a great umbrella shape going for it. Kathie made this plant by making the intriguing cross of 'Cinnamon Sticks' x 'Gilt By Association', which brings together a unique blend of traits. You can see that it got the dusty burgundy petioles of the mother and the leaf shape and habit of the latter, while picking up a nice bluish wax to compliment them. The flower scape is a dark purple too, which rounds out the color scheme. This is a pretty one that has won her some praise from the old hands in the hybridizing game. |
