Comments: Parent plant: Flowers repeatedly in same season. Reaches blooming size quickly. Handsome presentation. Medium-sized plant.

You may also place a "Notify Retries" Request, and if an identical pollination (the same parents) is done again, we'll let you know.
You may reserve a flask, but it's very unlikely you'll get one ...this could only happen if we found a flask that we didn't know we had. |
