A hybrid from Elfika Botanics in France with spectacular peltate leaves with lime green venation and silvery chartreuse (light green) spots on the leaves. The best combination of it’s parents! It can tolerate cooler temperatures and prefers higher humidity (>60%). (note: this is a named albeit unregistered cultivar, so individual plants should show little to no variation)
