User's notes

Very similar to T brevifolia, but with a thin, strappy leaf. Not quite sure what to make of this one. T nuda?

That could be T.arenaria, it is meant to be a larger species similar to T.nuda.

@tapirlord Tiny flower on this one! Plus the column arms don't match, they were most similar to T pauciflora. It was odd.
