thats gorgeous Paul..sounds like 2 plants I have had for years and never seen a bloom.. A. Vista and Burnie's spiral(which rarely if ever blooms)Both have puppped like mad but no blooms. BS I have never been able to remove and start a pup...always have had to air layer it first...it has formed a huge stem almost 2 ft long with pups all over the stem

Nice photo Paul. I've seen other pics of this plant when still listed as Canistrum,and it seemed that the leaves were a brighter green,almost lime color,and the spotting was more distinct,and the leaves a bit more compact.
Was this plant grown in a shaded area that contributed to the slightly different look? But no doubt its a 'Leopardinum',by that inflorescence. Very interesting plant tho. Thanks for the posting

Spotting is fading on the mother plant. That combined with winter light conditions, and probably a couple of months on display as an 'understory' plant. New pups which are developing (out of camera view) have more distinct spotting than the mother.
My plant at home develops pretty nice coloring when it's outside during the summer. I've tried to force mine a couple of times with Florel. Both times it just aborted and sent out pups.

I've never seen that one in flower either. Very impressive!

I am still confused by the recent reshuffling of Wittmackia, Canistrum, Edmundoa, Canistropsis and Nidularium. The groupings do seem to be a bit more homogeneous now, but just when I thought I knew what was what I have to relearn them all! It's almost as if they played musical chairs.
