As we all know, he's the landscape designer for our famous KLCC. Many plants were christianed under his name and this beauty is one of it.

Wow! Did not know broms can be so beautiful. I do not usually look at them but this has very unique colour and forum. Love the thorns. The flowers are so beautiful.

What a beautiful plant!! It's so similar to Dyckia, another relative. Might want to find this and grow it among my crypts!!

David, I always get scars after attending to it. That's why I keep so few of them. Alvin, there are a lot of beauties in Dyckia too. Again, spines is the major setback in them!
