C0-located with sighting 4401867 but much shorter (200 mm cf. 400 mm), many fewer buds and much pinker than 4401867. There were a lot more of the type shown in 4401867 than this shorter, pinker one.

Looks like T pauciflora but the column arms don't seem to be very upcurved like pauciflora so thinking T peniculata here
