Has A. flavescens ever been cultivated? The miniana var. is so unusually coloured and very pretty.

Thanks all .They were photographed on the 7th July.
I have no knowledge of the pink form in cultivation but I understand it is wide spread in the wild and so should have had seed collected

Tony I missed this post. They are just beautiful. Species of any plant can be so much more delicate looking.

Karalyn, Tony is from the UK-but was visiting. He never really stays long in Lancashire, as he's always traveling somewhere.

Lancashire is in the North West of England a most beautiful county but very very wet where I live. Terry my ideal would be to go away one week every month but but I will only do that if I come back rich in the next life.
