I just love the coloration of the leaves. A new leaf if peeking out now and just waiting to pop out.

Chadwick is definitely a show shopper. He is by far my favorite (don’t tell my others). I love the red incandescent on the leaves. But he needs some love and care. I was down to 1 life (1 leaf), and I moved him directly under a grow light, on a bed of pebbles, and started misting the bottom of the leaves. He is now thriving. He’s a must in a collection.

The plant is even more beautiful in person and I just love it! The color is so pretty and it arrived fairly quickly and was packaged super carefully to avoid damage when it did ship!
