I saw somewhere (might have been on this site) that someone was talking about owning a T every colour of the rainbow.
I like this idea and I think it would be fun to add to my wishlist T's which will fit the theme.

I currently have an OBT RCF, so orange is sorted.
I have a gbb for blue, although I have a P.sazimai on my wishlist that may be more fitting.
On my wishlist for yellow - H.pulchripes. For purple - P.machala.
Anyone have suggestions for the missing colours? Or something that would be better?

:D

You could have a purple bloom, Pamphobeteus platyomma for Indigo, but get a male, as the females are not as colourful. Red, really needs to be one of the Brachy's with red knees. And Chilobrachys fimbriatus, Indian violet.

The platyomma is stunning, and the patterning on the fimbriatus... *chefs kiss*.

I do have a hamorii, although being so young shes a little more orange the red at the moment :D

There’s some interesting choices for green, such as P. rufilata, P. cambrigei, A. aurantiaca, N. incei, but these are mostly dark forest greens and olives. If you want a real bright green that pops you need Phormictopus sp. full green. You will also need to redo your budget for that month because those babies are pricey lol

Ooooh that's pretty! I do have a rufilata on my wish list, so that may have to do until I can save up the pennies.
I already have a p.solaris on my wishlist that is £300 for 5-6cm :D
