A very showy plant, with dark crimson flowers 2” in diameter. The petioles of the leaves do not fall off but remain in the shape of spines. The peduncles are one-flowered. The plant was introduced in 1790 and it flowers in May and June. It succeeds best when planted in a conservatory, where it forms a handsome bush 2” high.

Nice, no problems.

This question does not pertain to the plants I purchased. I don’t use them. I will say that I have been purchasing from Planet Desert for 5+ years and have had all positive experiences with them. Shipping is fast, plants are packaged excellently and in very good condition. I will continue to order plants from them.

It’s too early to tell how well it will grow. It looks fine and healthy but it will have to grow a little longer to see how it performs for me. For now I’m very satisfied.
