- Add Note: Uncle Derek (2012-11-07) - Ignoring the 4 petalled wonder it seems this has the petals of B. nutans and the ovary of B. distachia. Both grow in southern Brazil so it could be a natural hybrid. More questions need to be aslked (Sent: brom-l@science.uu.nl)
- Add Note: Eric Gouda (2012-11-07) - We had this before, look at image 9591, but I don't think it is a natural hybrid between B.nutans and B.distachia, because it would not have this deep pink infl. axis. An other species has been involved here. (Sent: brom-l@science.uu.nl)
