Differs widely in appearance from its more common relative, Portea petropolitana v. petropolitana. Growing in a spreading , open rosette of densely lepidote, silvery leaves that are pointed and bear black spines on the margins. The inflorescence is a panicle of loose branches and bracts of lavender, very attractive. Grows to over 30 inches tall and wide.
If you go back far enough, you may remember Portea ‘Pink Shadow’. This is (or was) that plant. It sold under that name for a few years until it’s true identity was found out, but that was years ago.

This one, which originated in the collection of Chester Skotak, forms a small, tight, bulbous rosette with recurving leaves at maturity and colors up with reddish upper leaves, pink bracts and lavender flowers. When not blooming, the leaves are light green with a slight grayish cast.

An interesting and attractive plant about 18 to 24 inches tall in an upright rosette, with pale green leaves and a pink inflorescence with white flowers. The shape of the inflorescence resembles that of a typical form of blue-flowered gamosepala, but in every way it is larger. A rarely seen form that is both beautiful and easy to grow.

A clone of this variable species that we collected near Palmeiras, in the state of Bahia, Brazil. It is a bottle shaped plant with stiff, gray-green, narrow leaves. The inflorescence is a pink spike with clusters of short, cottony branches. It grows in the caatinga habitat of rolling, rocky grasslands and thorn scrub with stony outcrops and is especially tough and sun tolerant. Growing hard, that is in bright light, reduced water and feeding and under-potting will force the plant to take on its best form and color.
