S. diplotricha # 3085

Grows as a mini for me. Leaves are glossy and mottled randomly with golden yellow dots. Cool plant! Gets unruly at times. Younger plants behave better.

I just adore this trailer. The hair on the leaves give them the appearance of velvet. The flowers are softer in color as well.

Baby S. orbicularis blooming!

The odd Brother Paddy - Feb. 2007

This actually a side shoot on a green plant. I keep the green leaves picked off, except for a few. I have rooted leaves twice and each time they produce solid green plants.
