This specimen has a very linearly-tapered corolla and 6 very narrow but long tepals about half-way along the corona. This corolla can be anywhere between 7 to 25mm long, quite a considerable range! |

Whereas on this specimen the corolla straightens out near the end. The corolla is continuous but wavy-edged. The tepals are between 6 to 15mm long (up to 22mm on occasion), either linear or nearly so (as here). |

Looking into the throat there are 6 curved orange T-bar anthers and a single concolourous yellow discoidal style.
Both corolla and tepals are concolorous and yellow, although the tepals may have tinges of green as well. |
