Clowesia russelliana

[Kavanaru]

I have bought this plant labelled as Clowesia Rebecca Northen. From the very beginning the plant looked too large to be Rebecca Northen, but the seller insisted it was this hybrid and the plant was a division of a mother plant... even though I was suspicious of the real identity, I bought it "hoping" that it would be something different and interesting and which I would identify later on... well, it was like that the plant has bloomed now and it is a very nice Clowesia russelliana...

Thanks it is Clowesia russelliana... no doubts about it somehow lucky it was not Rebecca Northen, but this species which I did not have.. ( I have a true Rebecca N too)
