Phil..... £4.99. The only "problem" with it is that it has a couple of small splits in the side of the big head and one of the offsets. However, I'm sure they will grow out/down the side in a few years.

Tina - thanks!

Dave - do you have a picture? roseiflorus is one Turb that I don't have!

Cheers,
Jez

T. roseiflorus has never again been found in habitat so may be a cultivated hybrid. Don't mix it up with T. schmiedickianius ssp. rubriflorus which was found in habitat.

I think my plant came from Graham Charles so you might try him.
