- Does anybody have any information on N. tabularis "Peach fl." ? I
have two of these plants and the information I have is that this plant is
descended from 3 unusual seedlings from a sowing of normal N. tabularis.
The body is almost exactly the same as tabularis, with the spination
being much stronger. If I had to guess I would say there is some member of the
Herterianae mixed in there somewhere.
