White juavamensis?

Exo

Tastes like chicken!
Well...my juavamensis flowered for the first time since I got it....and..well, it's white. The others have since bloomed whie as well. Anyone ever heard of such a thing?

it looks like P. gracilis to me. got any pics of the summer growth? i seem to remember my "yucca do 17__" having a white flower... but i could be wrong.

a close-up would help.

the structure of the flower doesnt even look like juavamensis... and looking at pics of gracilis i would say ney to that as well.

EDIT: im stumped... it doesnt look like any species/ cultivar/ hybrid on the photofinder...

There are white flowered forms of P. debbertiana and P. moranesis. It's easy to confuse P. debbertiana with jaumavensis/ehleresiae/esseriana. It could be the plants are mislabeled. There are differences in flower structure. Close-ups of the flower would help.
 
Summer rosette

Bonjour

It would indeed be interesting to have a flower close up to see all the detail .

may be also a P.esseriana very very pale, wait for the close up .

P.jaumavensis and P.essariana are very close just some line to the throat differ.

Working on the close up..took some yesterday but they were blurry...my camera isn't coperating.

based on that summer rosette, i would think that is jaumavensis...pink is like a trademark color for that plant. mine even sported the pink color in succulent stage.

P. debbertiana gets pink too.
