collector's number:2.
fruits/flowers:mature flowers
notes:As with specimen 1. and again subject to a physical determination this specimen 2. also looks like the hybrid between T. latifolia and T. angustifolia. There is a very small gap seperating the male and female flowers on the inflorescence, an intermediate feature between T. latifolia and T. angustifolia and the leaf looks to be within the lower end of the width range for the hybrid.
