Traps start as a pink tone on mature specimens to a vibrant red , then the peristome ages a yellow tone onto non striped sections, as these traps age fully it gains a yellow tone on body with a orange/dark yellow/gold
a squat round female with a short flair , but very intense stripes, that exhibit stripe overlaps (one over another)


at a younger age/smaller basil/cutting the body can start green/yellow and produce a few strips, only when mature or near maturity does it truly shine

an interesting feature known on 'Candy Dreams' or CD is the dark  speckles on its leaves , many offspring display this trait in a variety of intensity. It is a similar red speckled variegation noted on lowlands such as 'Black Miracle'. On the veitchii Bario form, this is not an uncommon trait ,and can appear on any such cross with those genetics.

From the various sources of this specimen, have denoted that it originated from a wild seed pod collected and grown in Asia, various cuttings were produced as well as a few similar siblings exist from the same seed batch. 
Origin is believed to be Amos Yu, same as all the famed  'Candy Dreams' and believed to be a sibling or partial sibling from the same seed pod.  
 
To the best of our understanding of its origion, the seeds were collected and originated from "Amos Yu" or "Wen Chih Yu" , who has released many similar offspring as well down the years. 
 
Supposedly it went by a few different names in Asia circles, among some that are known are 'Xu Head' as well as 'Lions Head' in some of those grower circles.
