Firstly, I have to say a big :thanx: to jrodpad who inspired me to get this one ;)

I also can't take the credit for getting this to flower as it was in bud when it arrived about a month ago. However, it's grown over 6 inches since then before blooming and so I'm happy to feel a little bit pleased that the bud didn't blast in my care!

I love the colour graduation and the realy dark pink/purple which gives a nice focal point in the centre. Basically, I have fallen in love with this one and I can even smell a light scent of raspberries when I put my nose up close - definately a bonus! :)

Amazing! What a beaut. Great job keeping the bud strong through blooming. I love the super dark purple throat on this one.

Thanks for sharing!
