    I'm very pleased with the way this schilleriana is covering its mount. It has a nice symmetry and has wrapped almost entirely around the cypress plank. The tops of the leaves are green, the bottoms are a deep purple. I love it!

    Oh yea, Alexis. Verry nice. I agree with your comments about the plant but you don't mention the bloom ... it's very nice too.

    I like the lip on that one! Most of mine are purple, the raspberry color is fairly unique. I've only seen a raspberry colored lip clone at Sunset Valley Orchids.
