1997, this rare new species is quite an event and a real treat for collectors. It comes
from a tiny isolated mountainous area in central Madagascar and is somewhat like
densiflorum but with major differences. Its name alludes to the large showy ivory colored flowers which do not revert to yellow in cultivation. Spination is also much heavier and the leaves are more blunt than in densiflorum. These perfect 2 year old plants were grown from seed set on the exact plant in our photo. Supplies are limited. |
