Very nice pastels and very nice pouch! Yay micranthum hybrids!

It is a beauty John. I've had this cross since Antec made it back in the 90's. I have one left. It grows for a little while then gets set back, grows the set back. Over and over this same pattern repeats itself. This is probably why you rarely see pictures or plants. I do believe I saw one in bloom at OL, a little doggy and looked more like the niveum parent.

You're a very luck guy!

Thanks again everybody! Rick, I've had this plant for almost a year and a half and it's seemed to be happy; but, I'll take your caution seriously and watch it closely. I'd hate to lose it.

Just a thought, have you tried using crushed lime stones in your mix? Both niveum and micranthum benefit a great deal from that.

I do but it may not be in that pot!

I had one which did the same; lost it a couple years ago. But the other one is doing well and has bloomed a couple times; unfortunately the flowers are always a little cupped. But still one of my favorite parvi crosses.
