[John M]

Incredible plant and good info. Anyone have a good US source for this species?

Part of the problem is that the RHS changes their mind now and then. They used to recognize ecuadorense as a separate species; but, now they don't. I registered the cross Nitidissimum x ecuadorense as Phrag. Simon Marcotte. .....And, they also let someone else register Nitidissimum x pearcei as Phrag. Fire Star. Now, they're saying that ecuadorense is just a variety of pearcei. Maybe next year, they'll change their mind again!

Possible it is that why I'm keeping it...

wonderful, unfortunately I did not grow in my mind that he died a few months ago, but quit as soon clean and try again another plant

I love pearcei, I wish I could find a large pot of the small variety.
