Again, looks like the pauciflora type to me

Looking at this again, flowers look along the lines of T brevifolia - any chance you can recall what the leaf was like?

leaf was thin and channelled

OK so that doesn't fit for T brevifolia. It also doesn't look like typical pauciflora which should have column arms curved upwards, so I might just have to leave as a sp. here
