    This plant is just ugly (but a pretty flower)...recently imported and mounted. I have 3 clones, this is the ugliest plant, but the nicest flower.

    That is a nice flower. Yes, the plant is beat up pretty bad but that is short-term.

    I find that these can turn into really beautiful specimens over time. I've become very partial to plants like this that I didn't appreciate before.

    It looks pretty damn good to me :) the ugly duckling syndrome won't last long!
