Hi back!

I was doing one of my many internet searches I repeat a couple times a yearfor a pink one and up came this thread. I see Turtlewalker found a pink one.

Uncarina stellulifera is pink and so is Uncarina abbreviata. And I have read online that the new colored hybrids from Thailand are Uncarina roeoesliana which is usually yellow.

I have seen photos of really dark pink ones too so they are out there somewhere waiting for me to find them!

My yellow ones are so easy. I have had one in particular for years and it has been so abused yet it thrives and covers itself in blooms. I saw a beautiful yellow Uncarina grandidieri growing in the Enid A. Haupt Conservatory at the New York Botanical Garden in 2007 and have been so interested in them since then.
