Very nice colour. The shape is like the best ones we saw in the wild in Ecuador.

After seeing besseaes growing on rock walls in Ecuador, the climbing habit makes a lot of sense but it doesn't make it any easier to deal with when trying to grow them with pot culture. Tall, open faced cylinders that can be gradually filled with media as the plants gets taller and taller leaving the older growths trailing in the front while still rooted in the media has worked well for me.
