A plant with a somewhat mysterious origin, but wherever it came from, it's pretty awesome! Small and compact with a semi bulbous base, lepidote leaves that are thick and wavy.  Spectacular bloom, it is compact but very colorful grown in correct light.  Originally sold under the formula streptophylla x paucifolioides; paucifolioides has since been shortened to paucifolia
