I have a weakness for labiata, and a semi-alba is a bonus! Great growing, and thanks, Peter.

Peter,
your labiata is blooming in the north hemisphere fall, exactly the season they bloom in Brazil; then they were called C. labiata autumnalis, to separate the C. labiata warnerii. Now the names are simply C. labiata (the plants coming from northeastern region) and C. warnerii (the coming from southeastern region), but I guess both are the same plant, aparted centuries ago.
