Hi Alberto,

Thanks for the interesting discussion. In fact, all of those images are of
the same plant! The only difference is that the first image is from a
different year. These may have been from the same place that you've
collected and spread around the world, but definitely not the same time
frame.

I've updated the wiki entry with some habitat photos:

The UCBG Z. candida grows in the opposite conditions that it was collected
in. The plants are in full sun and a very well-drained area. They seem to
be doing quite well based on the blooming. It would be nice to get this
clone into cultivation because the other candida clones I've seen have been
small and not quite as impressive.
