There are two large ansellia specimans growing at the university that sit
right next to each other on the bench, so it is safe to assume that their
culture is nearly identical. The cultivar with the washed-out yellow flowers
tops out at 5 or 6 feet and is surrounded by a dense, tangled 'trash
basket.' Really, you can't even see the pot that it is growing in. The other
cultivar with deep orange blotched flowers only acheives about 3 feet and is
just as mature, but the catch roots are noticeably much sparser, just a few
tendrils poking above the surface of the pot. They both bloom
enthusiastically in season.
