Info | I usually toss anything slow, but this one is an exception, since I think it's so cool. Good substance, a matte and reflective bloom on leaf tops, white backs, red/purple pets and those curly leaves I'm so fond of. Deep saturated green but since the bloom is reflective the color appears variable. This new introduction from Alttara Scheer really reaches into a new bag of tricks! Need a little disorganization' Purple petioles hold thick dark green leaves with white backs that twist and turn in every direction, some of them almost create a complete corkscrew. This clump will always draw your attention and bring out emotion. Topped with purple flowers. |
