Mike, have a look at the PlantNET key and you will see the characters you need a clear image of.

Thanks Ken, I reported this via the app and haven't had a chance to look at PlantNET yet. I knew there was something I would need to examine closely. It was identified as 'sp.' previously.

Do the close-ups help?

Mike, one needs to know some of the following: how long the corolla is, the shape of the lower petal and whether the margins of the lower petal are spreading or erect, whether the upper petal is dorsally or laterally compressed. From your images I can make a reasonable estimate of the length of the inflorescence relative to the peduncle and the number of flowers but the other characters it is too hard to tell.
