Micromegas Posted November 10, 2008 (edited) Hey bit, these have been called T.tephrocanthus or T.shcikendanzii by the adelaide bot. gardens. I think the latter is closer to the truth. I've got some of these flowering at the moment, sourced from various gardens (with permission). Can you spot the difference? Any thoughts? Edit: that was a perfecty timed post strangebrew. I have included a third pic, this is what i have been calling candicans. Pink flower sheath. Edited November 10, 2008 by Micromegas Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
