Cette variété d Australis était inconnu pour moi. Elle est d' une grande beauté et je suis heureuse de l' accueillir parmi ces 2 cousines Australis et Australis Lisa. Elle est resplendissante de santé et déjà elle me fait de nouvelles feuilles. Ne le dites pas aux autres mais elle est devenue ma préférée.
