Flower description	Reference	Comments
	SRL Team	Strong upright growth. It seems most closely resemble R. crispata when they are all grown side-by-side. It doesn’t have deep crenations and grows more upright, in general though it has a very prominent midrib and grows in the same slightly contorted manner with rather thick phylloclades. The flowers are quite similar but, the ovary seemed a bit different.
