My New Rare Plant
 
Just got this recently. A caulescent form of ionantha but not van hyninghii. Overall length measures to abt 8" in length. Truely bizzare!

Sam, yes it is. but Paul didn't address it as such name. I'll just leave it for them how to name the plant. I was told it's a very old plant.

Another beauty Andy! Can't think of anyone more likely to propagate lots of those - hope you get flowers soon!

Thank you Shawn for your nice thought.......but I really like it to be this way. After it flowers, I'll have to start all over again.

Andy, what is the difference in growing requirement and growth rate of this tilly compared to the normal ionatha?
