Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Unique and rare, best in a pot of fast draining soil with plenty of indirect light…a winter grower with symmetrical palm leaf patterns and small pink flowers. Goes dormant with summer heat at which point it must be kept nearly dry until it emerges in winter. Forms low rosettes to 2’ wide over many years. Collector’s prize!
