Culture Notes from Donor: Parent plant: I grow it in the intermediate temperature range (60-83°F) in a saucer of water most of the year with a fan blowing directly on it.
Comments: The parent plant is ('Cajun Spice' x 'Mellow Yellow') which is a red/orange crossed with a yellow so a selfing of it may perhaps produce 1/4 yellows.
Parent plant: Small plant.
