I remember Bob Z's simple way of telling them apart - the white form has skinny ears & the blue form has fat ones.Ron: I wasn't aware there are different forms going around. It doesn't show in the photograph but there is a pale lavender/bluish color to the flower except around the "eyes" and "nose" which is pure white.
After looking at photos on the photo finder it looks to me the blue form doesn't have the "eyes" so maybe this is the white form? For comparison:
OMG - I'd forgotten how insanely beautiful Avery's pics are ... (he & Pygo should have their own exhibition!)
Actually, I don't think they'll produce seed even if you try. As long as you keep them from bridging the air gap between pots or sneaking across the bottom - you're good. They're the ideal little plant.So are these prolific seeders like U. bisquamata or U. subulata and am I going to have U. sandersonii all over the place?

For views of another 'bunny' species - in habitat ...
Ron,
I've recently purchased a plug from xxx. It is flowering now and the flowers look like the white ones. It is slowly taking over the pot

Pardon the quality of the pics. It is taken with my n900 camera. I'll try to get better pics if anyone wants them.
Can't name vendor names o.o
