Something new for Stephania?
Oh okay, the rest of you can look too. This is a little something that's still in the pipeline, but it propagates fairly quickly so it'll be out there before too much longer. Neo. chlorosticta 'Marble Throat' x Orth. navioides. What do you think?
Young plant:

And when it blooms the colors deepen:
{{gwi:506563}}
It stays kind of upright, though, doesn't flatten out like some other Neophytums when they bloom. It's not super-full, and it also pups before blooming. This is all the 'Marble Throat' heritage speaking.
Since you named my other xNeophytum 'Supernova', Stephania, I'm thinking about calling this one 'Milky Way', unless someone can think of a better name.
Sadly, 'Supernova' is not showing the same desire to multiply as this one is. I still have only the one original seedling. It "bloomed", or at least it formed a pincushion of floral bracts in the center, but I never saw any actual flowers open up. It's been several months now and no sign of a pup. *Not* a good sign. :-(
