The flower stem is about 30CM long. There are red spots on the petals. The substrate of the petals is totally white or very little green according to climate or individual difference.

It stops growing but the old leaves do not fade. The new leaves start to grow after the flower blooms.

Florescence
During early spring to late spring in Taiwan.

Cultivation hint

The plants prefer a sunny to half-shady situation on moderately moist soil. The substrate should be sandy-loamy or gritty-loamy soil.
I plant it alfresco. The leaves were burned by violent sunshine. I do not move it inside the house when it rains. The growing state is good.
