InfoRan decided this year to offer a piece of this one here in our auction, so we couldn't wait to get the lowdown from him on what that name means. Here is what he had to say: "I know which plant it is, but the name is really a series of garden letters for identification purposes. However the name is there in the Library now and I like it so I've decided to keep it! I keep getting asked what it means and I just smile!! It is also medium sized with almost round leaves, and of course highly streaked. I have never divided a piece off the plant, so this will be the first. It is a cross with Herb Benedict's 'Hot Flash' as the pod parent and a seedling of mine as the pollen parent. It seems quite sun tolerant, is fertile, and should be a great breeding plant.
