I think this is T. simulata but could also be another hybrid simulata look alike.

I agree this might be a hybrid. Should we update this?

Yes I agree, there are clearly finger-like papillae, that is more like T. ixioides or T. juncifolia but not quite right, so yes another hybrid, thanks.

@DerekC @MattM Thank you both. This is back before I knew what to take photos of! I appreciate you revisiting the old finds.
