« on: September 11, 2010, 03:40:17 PM »
Here is the flower of Rhodophiala species, may be R. advena or R. pratensis ...
Does somebody have any idea of the correct name ?
It comes from Chile and is flowering now.

Hi Fred, do you know where is its origin?
Rhodophiala is a tricky genus, in my opinion yours looks more like advena than pratensis ( posted R.pratensis (I think!) recently, R. splendens in the past) - but it could also be something else...

Advena has narrow long tapering tepals, the form most widely found is a dull dirty pink or dull pale slamon with fine lines.

Looks a lot like splendens.

Are you sure it is from Chile?

Fred
perhaps it would be better, to see also a photo with natural light, in way to have a various chromatic effect
