Plant Characteristic; Flowering Introduced in 1996, 'Melt Down' is one of the most intensely colored among epis, with its ruffled, crepe-like blooms of deep orange-red with wide violet edges on the bottom two-thirds of each petal. The outer petals are dark red-orange, and the medium-large, double flowers have a cup and saucer form, on large plants with three-angled growth. The color is actually much deeper and richer than can be seen in the photo. A Chadwick hybrid that is a cross of 'Eva' X 'Temptation'. It's a showstopper - and one of my favorites! This offering is for one well-rooted and established cutting, with new growth showing or beginning to show, in a 3 1/4" pot - similar to what may be seen in the photos. These are not full plants but, rather, smaller, well-rooted cuttings that are just beginning to show signs of new growth, or new growth is already developing. If you don't want to have to wait for a cutting to root, this will save you a few steps and time. The young plant you will receive is healthy and true to name (and may show a few nicks and dings).
