One of the larger of the genus, reaching a height of nearly 3 feet. It's upright leaves blush pink with silver banding in good light, when not over-fed. The inflorescence is typical of its kin, a cone of wavy, fluorescent crimson bracts, as delicate as tissue paper, and blue flowers. Stunning when in bloom. Great landscape plant for central to southern Florida and similarly warm areas. Will spread to fill a bed and will climb any available tree.

Winner Winner as always! Thanks so much!
I received a pup of Quesnelia arvensis from Tropiflora in great condition. Years ago we had some very nice beds of this Quesnelia at the Parrot Jungle in Miami that would put out a very colorful long lasting show of red blooms every year. I was looking to plant it at home and look forward to its bright red inflorescences.
