Hi Alan,

Hi jazzlvr123,

Some time the color of the spathe could be different because of the different locality. Even the pattern of the leave will be different. That is the interest in growing Crypts.

Again, very elegant. I just fell in love with this species.

Thanks again, It is a really beautiful species. I love it at the first sight.

Kevin;

Congratulations on the flower, and thanks for the cultural info. I just picked up some Malaya at our last GWAPA meeting. Looking forward to giving it a try.

As good as the pictures are, they don't do the plant justice. It looks much nicer in person and then you can tell it's not a wendtii.

Cheers.
Jim

Thank you Jim,

Yes, you are right. This plant is good looking both in flower and leave. It is the most beautiful Crypts, in my own opinion.

Maybe my picture is not good enough to show the nice looking of this plant. But this plant is absolutely not C. wendtii.
