This plant was bought as Aylostera froehlichiana, but WR493 is the type plant of A. gavazzii. Unfortunately the number WR493 has been misapplied to various different species. Whether for profit or just error I don’t know. As a result the true A. gavazzii has become difficult to find. It has pink flowers, whereas most of the impostors have orange-red or red flowers.
