This is a second clone of this species that we collected in the Chapada Diamantina area of Bahia, this one near Mucuge. See photo below of the plant as we found it in the wild. Noted for its outstanding bulbous shape with wavy margined leaves that are very wide at the base and narrow abruptly where they bend to flare out at the ‘neck’ of the plant. The color is grayish green mottled with blackish purple. The inflorescence is a rose colored scape with many compound branches with flowers that are basically greenish with purple petals. After blooming they turn a sort of wheat color.
