New Buds in the Block Party

[DrLeslieEe]

The leaf in front of him, is it from another leuco? Perfect amount of silver dots! My kinda leuco leaf!
Often they are mostly just green.

Yes the other one in bud.

"You idiots! You've captured their stunt (plants)!"

Or are they?

 

[Guldal]

I think I’ll call him ‘Jedi’

I think he's more of a Sith lord than Jedi!

I wholeheartedly agree with eds - God knows, when fully opened, it might turn out to be The Dark Lord, himself! Muhahahahaaaaa

My bad… it’s actually the leaf of a niveum.

I prefer good over evil lol.

 

[DrLeslieEe]

That is fantastic. Did you get this from Sam? I'm tempted but then I don't have a space.

No, this was selected from Thailand as first bloom 3-4 years ago.

 

[Happypaphy7]

It has taken 3-4 years to bloom again??

No lol it’s the 3rd time blooming. The previous pic was from last blooming.

Thanks. Will you share to me where you got this in Thailand, I plan to be there sometime in Nov. I will grow them in the Phils.

 

[Happypaphy7]

I got it from an agent in Thailand that searched privately for me. She doesn’t tell me which nursery but it seems like there’s many in the markets, albeit not as flat or round? The good ones run hundreds if not thousands of dollars.

Still another 24 hours to stretch lol.

 

[Guldal]

Look at him!!!

Sacré bleu! You can't hide it now: Dark Wader!
Ought to swipe the board at the judging!

 

[KyushuCalanthe]

Wow, that is gorgeous.

 

[DrLeslieEe]

Thanks all.

I feel like he’s BIGGER, BADDER and MEANER looking lol than before.

 

[mSummers]

Very nice! Good luck at judging.

Also I know the feeling with the Vietnamese. Mine has bud blasted in low spike twice in me. I’m trying hard not to even look at mine this time. So far that tactic is working.
