In looking back at the photos this must have been a plant that they used at the WOC...
Attached are the photos from the blooming last year.

Hey Royal,
Did you notice the slight notches on my petals ? Is this normal ?
I've looked at both the amabilis and the aphrodite and I'm still confused... To me mine either looks like neither one, or a cross between the 2 ?!

It is hard to identify unless you have checked many real wild type species.

These two species had been introdued to the gardening for a long time. Any commercial type has been changed from the original.

For me only the wild type can be identified.

The points are
1. callus
2. lips
3.habitat
