I always wanted to lie naked on a bearskin rug in front of a fireplace. Cracker Barrel didn't take kindly to it.

    Hi Tom
    I've never seen such a plant. The vibrant colors and textures are wonderful. The outer petals remind me of some of my grand-daughter's cuddly toys.

    Be Well

    Hey Jack,

    Most of the time this plant ( also called a Hindu Rope ) has a rather non-descript look. Once a year. however, it puts out these beautiful pinkish blooms. I find the symetry in the flower to be fascinating.

    Take it easy,

    Tom
