    One of my favs but not a great pic of it. I grow it in Sphag in a clay pot. As I was taking it to get a pic...I discovered a slug on the pot. It's frozen now :evil:

    Too bad it's not big enough to divide!
    That's lovely!

    I've always thought this was one of the nicer ones. Well done, Ron.

    It is a fairly rapid grower. The frontal pic was taken winter 2007, as you can see it only had a few growths. I divided it in fall 2008 it had about 15 growths then. If someone reminds me next year, I may be able to divide it again in 2010.
