Info"Love Pat like" appearance with "ventricosa type blooms".
This is a 'Sea Lotus Leaf' seedling, very round, corrugated, upright habit, and very blue. It's a marvelous blue that has deep purple flowers.
A hybridizer's dream, very blue leaves with purple ventricosa-like flowers.
That's a combination no other plant has.
