Hi Max, what a lovely spotting you have here! I have removed this from the Rare Colour Morphs mission as these inflorescences are normal for the species. Should you care to check, use the genus and species name and do a Google search, click images, and you'll see that every flower looks the same as in your spotting. Thank you and happy spotting!
