Re: my conservatory
Nice colour on that last Gymno, Hob. Most of my Gymnos are white flowered, this must go on the list!

Re: my conservatory
chris there is some speculation that the plant may be misnamed and should be labelled

Re: my conservatory
According to the latest validly published descriptions, plants with fully opening flowers in pink and white shades are G. stenopleurum while G. mihanovichii only applies to plants with yellow-brown flowers that rarely open fully. I'm sure this is reflected in the NCL because I don't think anyone has published on these species recently. They are clearly very closely related (and all found in the same area), equally clearly there are three rather different flower forms rather than the two named.
The name G. mihanovichii is nearly universally applied to these plants in cultivation, often with variety names attached. The name G. stenopleurum is a relatively recent attempt to clear up some of the confusions surrounding the original description of G. mihanovichii having yellow flowers but probably just made things more confused.
