John,
Unfortunately, _U.bisquamata_ is the first legitimate name for the plant
widely known as _U.capensis_. According to the rules (International
Code of Botanical Nomenclature, ICBN) , _U.bisqamata_ is thus the *only*
name which should be used , _U.capensis_ being a synonym (regardless of
easier pronounciation etc...). So, I am sorry to state you cannot have
_U.capensis_ even if you try very hard. It is all _U.bisquamata_ (in
the best case: i.e. correct ID provided). Kind regards
Jan
