We first acquired this plant several years ago as seedlings. The plant is a fairly large grower to about 30 inches, bulbous based with wide, deep green spiny foliage. The inflorescence is nothing short of spectacular! Massive in comparison to the plant, it is a panicle of densely set branches with white tipped pink sepals, giving the appearance of a cluster of pink berries. An epiphytic or lithophytic species native to Surinam.
*VIPP plants are offsets - not the mature plant in the photo
