C. lueddemanniana 'Arthur Chadwick' AM/AOS
Original division of C. lueddemanniana 'Arthur Chadwick' AM/AOS. First time bloom for me, in love....
The mottled leaves of new growth is also endearing.

Thanks! Pretty big, especially relative to the plant, although I am not an expert.

Congratulations!!! I was just reading about this plant last night in Chadwick's new book and was thinking, "Man I'd really like to have that one." It is WOW!
And mottling...i have never heard about anything like this...you're saying it goes away as the leaf matures?

Yup! In the third pic the leaf to the left (yellowish green) was mottled when I originally got the division. It gets a lot of light, evidence by the light green/yellow color, yet still lost its mottling. |

I lost my first one, but had to get a new one since the blooms were amazing. I have seen flowers on this get up to between 7 and 8 inches. A wild collected plant as well - good growing!
