Cryptocoryne minima is going to flower

Recently, a colleague collector wrote me a message about getting new species. Since I was curious whether I have something to trade I looked, looked closely on my Crypts and found out my Cryptocoryne minima is developing inflorescence. So far it is tiny and I am waiting at least fourth day to open, but It made me happy. The spathe is – as expected – approx. 1-1,5cm.

I will comment more on this topic when the spathe opens.

For now, a few photos.
