Accession Data:

  • Accession # 201000046
  • Source: Frank Omilian
  • Provenance: A seedling of what is in the trade here in the US as Hydnophytum papuanum. It does have some unique leaf features - smaller, thicker, rolled on the edges. I am not sure it is really papuanum because papuanum should have no (few?) hairs in the floral tube and the 50 or so plants I have looked at of these moseleyanum types all have hairs in the floral tube. I am not convinced the real H. papuanum is in cultivation here.1
