I have a few favorites... I thought we could show them here. My favorite is Sunlit Sugar Plum in case there is any doubt, ha. I talk about them a lot. They are almost impossible to find. I finally found a couple of leaves last year and grew some plants. I hope to get a bunch of large plants and keep growing them and keeping this plant going. I get so sad at the loss of the best and oldest plants. I lost my large plants when I got ill....
Here is a photo of my with a big one a few years ago. Then a baby I just took a photo of with the first bloom. I only have babies now but they will be getting large. They like semi hydro.
What are our favorites?
Very pretty plant Sally. Your baby will be big in no time :) I hate to say I can't pinpoint a favorite. I have several that I would get upset over losing which includes some that were shared with me from friends. All are so beautiful!! I have tested the s/h for several months to see how well it would do for me here and I like what I see so I plan on putting some babies in it shortly :)

Maria, that Snow Jewel bloom is jaw dropping!! Spring Rose blooms look very similar to my Ian Frost blooms. It sure has brightened my days this winter :)
Connie
Thanks Connie, I think everyone has to have a Snow Jewel. Now I'm into longifolia, tried to start a few leaves but only a couple of babies made it. Will keep looking for more!
I received 2 leaves of Senk's Longlegs a few years ago and had no luck with them lol!! The leaves were so small but with you saying that, I wonder if longifolia leaves are more difficult to work with.
Connie
Such gorgeous flowers!
Sally, it's so hard to pick favorites. My list changes as I see new ones bloom and put on a show. Your Sunlit Sugar Plum is one that I am definitely adding to my list.
Maria, love the Snow Jewel.
Here a few of my favorites that are in bloom now:
Newtown's Quiet Resolve
Ma's Fuzzy Slippers
Tiger
Midnight Romance
Spring Cardinal
Chiqui
Wow....great eye candy everyone!
Yes,longifolias do have a bit of a reputation for being harder to grow.
Very nice Chiqui ::))
