Hi guys, I am thinking about getting a Phrag Andean Fire (besseae x lindleyanum) but because I grow in a fairly small space, I always have to consider the size of a plant at maturity.

Can anyone give me an idea on the size of this guy? I have a besseae but don' t know much about the lindleyanum. I grow under lights by a east X north east window.

Regards, mary:Party:

I have seen some that got pretty big and some were just medium size plants but those were also younger plants.

Mature plants can easily reach 3 ft in leaf span.

It does get fairly large, so probably not the best candidate for the windowsill.

I saw a really big one at my local os...it was between 3 and 4 feet across.
