Wow, Tiger is gorgeous! Someone on Dave's sent me a leaf of Harbor Blue in a trade last year (I think it was a guy). It is doing wonderfully for me so far. I'll be looking for Happy Cricket and Tiger now.

Helene, would you like a leaf of Anna Kreck? Its variegated leaves are so sensitive to the oil in my skin. I try to groom with cloth around my fingers, but the last time neglected that and got brown 'finger spots' on a leaf. It's a healthy young leaf and needs to be groomed out now and ought to propagate nicely.

Here's the Harbor Blue in a 4in pot that came from the trade leaf last year. It's 10 inch wide. Heidi's 2 footer must have been incredible!! I would have loved to have seen it.
