It sure is very pretty!!

I spent some time today trying to get the right color on my Potinara Red Heart 'Neptune'. This is the discussed shade of hot pink with a wonderful fluorescent sparkle in the sun which is so difficult to capture. I took about 50 pictures at different times as the light changed during the day, different backgrounds, 2 different lenses, varied settings, placed white paper in front of flash......

I bought it as a very small plant 4 years ago and planted it into a half coconut shell. It bloomed last year for the first time.
