That's what we found a few days ago, a few C. incurva leaves, and plenty of leaves of C. hispida but no sign of flowering having occured.

I wanted to check the timing. I'm now confident that the two Aranda colonies I have been hesitant about are C. hispida, based on both their timing and the appearance of the leaves (darker colour and different texture).
