Phrag. besseae

This is a flower that was only discovered about 20 years ago. The red is incredibly vivid, the photo does not do it justice. I find this one not too hard to grow, it needs good light, and decent water. And for me at least it blooms every winter. It's a small thing, maybe 1.75 inches across. And the petals glimmer in the sunlight. It's quite a cool little flower. Enjoy.
