Neofinetia falcata ‘Kinkabuto’ (金兜) is a shima-fu (striped variegation) Fuukiran cultivar known for its bold yellow-striped leaves and fragrant white flowers.

The name “Kinkabuto,” meaning “Golden Helmet,” to me, reflects its dramatic foliage and cultural nod to samurai aesthetics. 2 large growths potted in traditional style
