N. villosa x ventricosa FC-325: BE-4679 SMALL

As these plants mature, you can expect a range of expressions that blend villosa’s dramatic influence with ventricosa’s reliability and vigor. It’s a great option if you like watching a plant evolve and don’t want something overly finicky from the start.
