User's notes
These are flowering along with many D. sulphuea but have distinct widened patterned tails. Not sure if this is a variable feature of D.sulphurea, or if this may be a variant or subspecies?

This is a peloric plant. Peloric plants have mutations that are expressed in petals/sepals taking on the shape of other petals/sepals.
