Stelis argentata

Stelis argentataWell established blooming size plant in a 2. 25" pot. This unusual species creates 10 40 tiny flowers per spike. Each flower will fit on your pinky nail. The flowers are maroon red with a white, furry border. It reminds me of a string of small buttons. The plant multiple times a year! If you keep them happy (cool wm, moist and in bright shade) these plants grow like grass! Great for vivariums.

The throat is an orangey-red that bleeds out into the solid red sepals

This species produces flowers that truly have a monkey face (I actually see baboon)

Sweetly fragrant flowers

It's compact but not so small as to disappear

If you have the room it really is a stunning plant

This kit is a great investment for the health of your new babies

sit on top of the leaf

The first time they flowered each spike had 2 flowers and this time around they had 4 so chances are the flower count will continue to go up as the plants mature

Very lightly fragrant

Here's one for you mini and Bulbo growers

regular watering spring-fall with a dry rest period in the winter
