Mature, tubular rosette to 30cm. high, flaring at the top. The few pointed leaves (about 4) are dark rose-based, tinged green with many longitudinal cream lines and cream spots on the obverse--a very unique pattern. The foliage reverse is more solid dusky pink with faint silver cross-bands. This cultivar has not bloomed for the breeder since the cross was made. Reg. Doc. 2/2020.
