White-flowered C. praetermissum

[luca]

I got this one from a member of the Pimentas forum, from Brazil.  He found it on the wild, growing in some woods.

It seems to be a white-flowered C. praetermissum.

Interesting flower and nice pictures. What leads to the determination of C. praetermissum?

[luca]

I'm not really sure it is a C. praetermissum.  But the region where it was collected from has loads of C. praetermissum growing in the wild.

But it could well be another species, maybe still not described formally? :shock:

The growth of this plant looks very much like other C. praetermissum I've seen.  I haven't seen the pods, but they are said to be small and red.  The seeds are light-brown/yellow, like other common species.

Does anyone have another opinion?

Even for the plant seems to me a C. Praetermissum
The flower with red border that is :shock:
This can be a wild unknown

Please save seeds if possible.  I'd love to try this one if possible Luca.  Very unusual!  I hope it works out well.

I have grown one white-flowered prae: CGN 22795. Was a huge, strange, clearly very wild plant. Pics can be found in Inferno's Wild section (which btw will again have a huge update due to new information).
