ORTHOSIPHON ARISTATUS (VARIEGATED)

I showed the variegated leaves of this plant in the post on 23 Jan 10. Now the plant flowered recently.

It is a white Cat's Whiskers! I love it that the sepals of the flower are purplish. Unfortunately, this variegated form seemed to be much less vigorous than the common green ones and takes a long time to grow.

That is a demerit point.
