Simply stunning!
I always think of my mam when I see these - she grew them from seed each year.
I saw some lovely ones at Lilburn Tower garden last weekend in a glasshouse.
Those are lovely, Sue!
Equilibrium plant has such great color too!
Indeed, I think that's a big part of the attraction with these, that they come in such pretty colour variations.
