Your plant does not look to me like C. cardenasii; I vote it is a cross.

Wrong, and distorted, flower shape, but worse, really wrong calyx teeth.
(These teeth look like C. pubescens or more likely C. eximium)..

Leaves look too large for C. cardenasii, to me.

Looks like flower of C. eximium.

But this looks like C. cardenasii.


If all these photos depict the same plant, I vote that it is a cross
between C. eximium and C. cardenasii.
