I'm not a fan of huge pouches, but yours looks very nice!! The staminode, spotting, colors & shape are great

Troy how come? I've always wanted to ask that question. Seems like not a lot of people like parvis when they've got a lot going for them. I know I am a fanatic!

I didn't really like parvis either, though I now have many, and still don't like micranthum.
The huge pouch reminds me of toilet bowl. lol

I like micranthum flower color, leaves and how small the plant is, and this small plant size seems to dominantly influnece many of its hybrids.

To me, Magic Lantern is a perfect alternative.
Flower is well-proportioned and the color is great!
Plants are bigger than micranthum but still not too big.
