A beautiful photo! May I add that to Inferno's wild section..?

[JohnF]

Yes, you may.

[Aji Inferno]

Yes, you may.

Thanks, John!

A beautiful flower indeed. Haven`t seen one with that greenish center before.

Dr. Bosland says the green spots are characteristic of C. eximium

The color of spots is an interesting thing... Mostly it doesn't change within the same species, but there are some exceptions. There are baccatums with both brown and green spots. Also, one of my c.flexuosums has bright green spots, the other has golden brown spots. Wonder if there's similar variation within species c.cardenasii/eximium...
