Oh my. I've really never wanted Guardian Angel but you sure make it look interesting.

It is like the caterpillars of some moths which go through stages of several instars until they final cocoon and come out as this magnificent moth or butterfly. Amazing the stages this one is going through.

Your Progressions are so easy on the eye. Thank you for all of them. Don't stop yet, you're on a roll!

Leaflover: interesting progression.

I just bought a GA. I could never decide if I liked this one even though it seems to be popular. But recently saw a couple of pics of mature ones that impressed me.

I was able to find a division of a mature plant so it already has large varigated leaves, just not many of them (4 to be exact, taped up together) We'll see what next year brings.

Leaflover, I planted GA late last summer. Same thing with mine. It came up this spring and produced seven leaves. And amazed me by adding 18 new leaves in this late summer second flush. I'm curious as to what's going to happen next year!
