N. benstonei var. "Country Ham"

This is a five-inch n. benstonei. I saw it on C. Klein's sales list and realized I didn't have it yet. Perused the few pictures on Bob Z's PhotoPhinder, found the plant so-so, but ordered it anyway. (Why? A lowlander I don't have yet? IT. MUST. BE. MINE. syndrome, advanced stage)

Little did I know that the entire plant would be completely PINK (a feature the pix on the PhotoPhinder didn't show). What a prize!

Now I'm trying to find more pictures of this species, maybe a few shared experiences on what it likes and hates. (It's now in my owland acclimatization tank and seems happy as a porker in a wallow)

So, show and tell!

Hey, that's pretty cool!  

Guess "Country Ham" is a color reference.
