Matucana paucicostata is probably the smallest Matucana species. The plants mature ans start blooming at the size of walnut, and generally do not overgrow the mid-sized apple. Large plants usually open flowers in small bouquets of 5-10 blooms at time, forming pretty crown. Looking close at the flower is also a pretty sight, with gentle changing color shades of petals and tight bunch of filaments around style.
