To Isao, Jan, and Barry,

I just got through looking at some new pictures that were put up on the CP
D-Base. I looked at a plant that was under the heading U. campbelliana. I
believe this is an error, though I cannot be certain without having seen the
plants in person. The plant pictured I believe is U. buntingiana, and not U.
cambelliana. Like I said, I I have not seen the plant in its habitat, but do
know that U. campbelliana has red/orange flowers (according to Peter Taylor)
and that U. buntingiana has lavander/pale mauve flowers (also according to
Taylor).

Comments anyone?
