John,
Instead of "tubular", I think a more appropriate term for the C. cardenasii flowers is campanulate,
meaning "shaped like a bell".

tubular purple flowers.
It looks like C. cardenasii to me except for the photo of the open flower you shot in early in the
day. Now I'm going to have to look at mine in the morning to see if the flowers are more opened.
Do the flowers change from opened to campanulate (or tubular) as the day goes on, or does it take
several days for this change to occur?
