    I received this as a single growth keiki many years ago. It was in a pot tagged sulphurem but I knew that wasn't what I had. It is kingianum-like but not positive...anyone recognize this one? Karen, I am thinking this may have come from you years ago and I mixed tags

    Wow. That's pretty nice. If it's a species, of course. If it's a hybrid, it's awful. :)

    Not all Den Suffusum plants are natural hybrids. 99.9% of all D. Suffusum plants around the world are man made crosses.
