Comments:
A clump forming variety, with good care it will produces off-sets or pups around the base of the mother plant to form a very attractive ‘ball’ of plants. It is an undemanding, hardy and resistant species, requiring regular misting, but also a graceful bloomer. It is especially good for beginners.
