      Some trops.

      These plants were sent to me mid May when it was very cool but they have recovered and are starting to bloom well. No supplemental heating. A full grown trop can take some abuse and recover. Foxfire, Albert Greenberg, and Doris Holt.

      Benicia, CA, still on the bay so that it cools off nightly but far enough from the coast to be nice.

      Great pictures Matt...I've never seen 'Doris Holt', are the pads notable?

      Yes! The pads are heavily mottled and the plant is compact and viviparous. Really nice plant. I will post a photo of the whole plant soon.

      Also a beautiful small tropical by the amazing Japanese hybridizer Noryuki Kato. It is named 'Mizore'. Blooming today. It can grow larger than this but it is very adaptable to tiny confines.

      This is one of my minis'....pads plain green and not nearly as nice as those on 'Mizore', but the flower tends to be a mop top.
