Weird Potinara

My Potinara Hoku Gem "freckles" is soooo cool!!! It changes color over time, and woah....sooo totally cool. My best buy ever! Can't wait to see it in bloom again.  The flowers lasts about a month during the summer because it has been pretty warm recently.  If I kept it a bit cooler and watered it more, most likely the flowers lasted longer.  Oh well. 

Check it out!

When I first bought it was a lovely dark red, almost like lava.

See? Very orangy and redy almost like fire.






Above: Now this is the Potinara a few weeks later.  The orange turns into a yellow with lots of cute little red spots which are the "freckles". 

Right: Finally, two or more weeks before the flowers are about to drop, the freckles fade into a almost solid color of yellow.  Still, the little lip has red spots and is still a light shade of orange.
