Ballet Blue Ice

 The very first plant I bought of this variety absolutely wowed me with its beauty. I opened the container it was in and it was in bloom and the color just blew me away. It's difficult to catch that "wow" from a picture. It has remained one of my favorites. It has a somewhat funky growth habit in that the crown tends to create a neck quite quickly and it is difficult to get it to shape nicely.  Leaves tend to want to twist and not grow the way you want them to. But to me, the flowers more than make up for this.

A.Fischer, semi-double, dark blue, darker edge.  Miniature.

Available as plants and leaves.
