Thanks Liz. Its pretty close, but perhaps not quite the same...

It's hard to tell, with different growing conditions etc.

I agree, it's difficult to compare. Any derenbergii hybrid is going to have those pronounced points on the leaves. With more room your plant would probably show its characteristics better. It looks ready for a bigger pot, so perhaps if you re-pot it we could have another look, once it has settled down.

Thanks for the suggestion. However, the ends of the flowers on my plant are spreading, which does not seem to be right for E. cuspidata.
