Photo of H. australis or no ?

The difference between H. brevialata and H. incurvula will be in the flowers...much easier than trying to look at leaves.

Here is H. australis ssp. tenuipes...you are right...the Plant Files photo looks like subquintuplinervis. Can't find my pictures of the leaves...will keep looking. I can't tell from that picture if the leaves are pinnately veined (center vein) or palmately veined.

Edited AGAIN to say that the bases of the leaves are WAY off...his is NOT H. australis....
