A Jim Irvin hybrid introduced in 1991 is the prodigy of Cryptanthus ‘Cloudcover’ crossed with Cryptanthus ‘Ocean Mist.’ Owing to its ancestry, this plant has the crisped edges and long graceful leaves fixed in a symmetrical rosette as Cryptanthus zonatus. The one-inch wide dark brown-pink leaves are marked with a cross banding of an undulating flame-stitch pattern of snow-white trichomes eventually blending into each other as the plant matures. As the plant matures, it loses scurfing on its lower leaves, darkening to a brown-red as its brown-pink offsets emerge dusted with snow-white trichomes. The beautiful hybrid matures out to a 6-inch height with a 14-inch diameter.
*VIPP plants are Offsets
