I bought SunRay Trail about last year around $53.00
Never seen it for sale any where else. It came alsmot dead. I got it living and it gave me some Bloom Stalk Baskets. Then I had bad case of Mealies just this plant as healthy and in bloom you's never know it. Thank God it was not near or with other plants. And it grew fast, always blooming you would never had expected this. Right now it went from a full 5 inch pot down to 2 inch no roots 3-6 leaf sucker bagged where it will be isolated for at least three more maybe a year if it lives.
Luckly the baby bloom stalk babies I grew some babies from 4 lived. They were about almost 1/4 inch round sucker bloom basket when I potted them up. I was able to give Lorry and Lali a baby plant. I have two small ones left. Snes I paid so much for it and I have never seen it before I will keep them until I am blessed with more basket bloom stalk babies Then I will be able to share again.
No vendors sell it.
