Hi Paul,
We're not sure if we have the correct plant- we have something called punctate red . It's also slightly damaged, so might not be journal standard. See images below

If it's acceptable we can try to get better photos for Uncle Derek

Hi Paul,
I've just checked through my vast brom photo files on my computer, and found this clump of Neo. punctatissima/Punctate. It does show side view and top view, but I'm not sure if it has the clarity and size suitable for Derek's article - I'll send it to him anyway. I owe him an email.
Cheers,
Kerry

Jaga- that would be Neo. punctatissima rubra, or 'Punctate Red' or some form of ampullacea. That's one of the issues that I hope will be "officially" cleared up soon. We'll see where Uncle Derek is going with all this.
Kerry- nice pic. I think Derek wants at least 2 mega pixel resolution.

Paul, and I have got a punctatissima Yellow - which is not so yellow at the moment because in mid summer it gets a bit more shade. Late summer when it gets almos full sun, it turns a beautiful golden yellow. It is very compact (10 cm tall), has flowered already and has 2 pups on already.
