Remarkable colors!
The flowers are so dark when seen straight on, but have such remarkable colors when you take a closer look. In bright light, slashes through the throat glow dark neon purple. From the side, the flowers contrast from their faces with pale lavender and violet.
Beautiful!
Received Xolo a few weeks back and it now has a bloom that looks like velvet. All plants came in perfect condition and now the decision is which other ones to add to my collection.
Arrived with a bloom stalk!
When I got this plant not only was it a very well established strep but it even had a bloom stalk with buds that arrived completely undamaged from shipping. Very impressed! Plant has maintained a nice size, not too big but not too small and very hardy. A great hybrid.
Lovely plant...
I got my Bristol's Xolo over a year ago and it's been growing nicely, but this month I finally got my first flower (actually three flower spikes) and it's SO beautiful. My others are blooming as well, but such a great plant. Looking forward to purchasing a few more for my collection. Thanks!
Beautiful and exactly what I wanted
I didn't expect this plant to bloom so soon after delivery (esp since it seemed on the smaller side) but was beyond excited when I saw buds. Holy moly it's blooms are gorgeous and exactly what I was looking for. In certain lighting the blooms look black, in others you can see the inky purple hue. They are stunning and the blooms look soft and velvety. So far it seems 2 blooms/stalk, and they last a very long time before they wilt. The leaves still don't look as healthy as my other streps, they look like the are on the verge of turning yellow/brown but maybe that's just it's coloring? I wish there was an African violet with this bloom color.
