Don, regarding your strange pygmy: I've grown _D.pygmaea_ for a while and
have noticed on this plant an occasional irregularity in the number of
petals, an occasional 5 instead of 4. I've also seen this in the hybrid
_D.nitidula omissa X occidentalis occidentalis_, known as _D._ X Lake
Badgerup. But as Jan points out, 10 flowers/scape is not a _D.pygmaea_
trait. What happens when you try to key this plant using Lowrie or
Erickson? (The latter is out of date, of course)
