ventergreen

I've been meaning to show these plants for a while now. They are L. lesliei v. venteri 'Ventergreen' C001A, a cultivar variety developed by Y. Shimada, and were actually the reason I wanted to place an order. After seeing some pictures I really wanted to have the Ventergreens but they were nowhere to find. Having finally found them in Shimada's catalogue I could only afford three fairly young plants so here they are. The color is a dream - I don't think the pictures do justice to them - light creamy green, so different from other lesliei greenies, it reminds me of green tea soft ice cream. :) As you can see, one had a flower but not having a partner there won't be any seeds yet (maybe next year?).
