One of the most exciting species to come into cultivation in a long time. A beautiful compact growing Cryptanthus with broadly triangular leaves, banded lengthwise with three rows of silvery trichomes over a base color of reddish chestnut-brown, in a full, leafy rosette. Grows 4 to 8 inches across and produces a profusion of offsets on long stolons. This stunning decorative species was extremely rare and fairly expensive when first introduced.
