Default Gongora amparoana








This little guy is not a common species so I jumped at the offer when a friend gave me a division about a year ago or so. It shed all of its leaves a few months ago, which is bad, so I assumed the media was sour. Changed the old spag out with new stuff and voila! Four new spikes and 2 new growths.

The colors on this species are very nice, though as you can see they are more subtle than many other Gongoras. Enjoy!
