The first two photos are from a nursery in Europe. The small plant is from my collection a few years ago. The last plant is one which I gave to my sister who lives in Trinidad. It was 6 inches tall two years ago when I took it. I was there all last week, and was amazed at how much it has grown. The tropical environment is perfect for Adenums. Jkw
