This is one of my favorite. I bought it in a plant's show in Metropolis a year ago. Quiet expensive for me at that time and a rarity of its kind. It has 9 branches directly from its caudex. Very slow grower. Leafs are oval shaped, thick and shiny. To my surprise that in this rainy season, it show the flowers for the first time. Gladly I put the pollen into my 'Kirin' mother plant in hope to get a variegated white flower thai socotranum. The stem's colour is mild brown and shinny. To me, it's one of my precious treasure. Rather difficult for me to find this type of arabicum again and sure if i found one, it'll cost me much.
