Unfortunately, the middle picture is a bit unsharp but should still give an impression of the notch... sorry. The horses have nabbed on the leaf during late winter.

T peniculata should have a flattened post-anther lobe and a more slender leaf. Thinking T megcalyptra here with a leaf like that, flowers look fairly large (if not currently open), and post-anther lobe looks pretty inflated
