I see this has been mentioned on other forums, but would just like to give people here a heads up--when I was in the local Lowe's on Saturday (this would be in the Pittsburgh, Pa. area) I saw that they had two nice pots of h. lacunosa 'royal flush'....Amazingly, I actually left them there and didn't buy them...I have zero room at this time to move plants inside, and although the royal flush is a very pretty plant I thought that even from a short distance it just looked like a slightly darker regular lacunosa....you really had to get right up on it to see the purple stems and purple new growth...I already have a big regular lacunosa and a smaller "sno caps" so I had to draw the line somewhere...anyhow, if you have lots of room, or are into collecting all the lacunosa varieties, this is an attractive and unusual plant, and apparently they are becoming available at this time, so keep an eye out...:-)
