I got some unclassified tubers and I need help!

this is the first two tubers to reach the full size.

I will post photos of the other species when they are fully developed.

any idea?

I can not see B2, but I would put E2 into the D. (aff) tubaestylis category. The Brookton form is very red (deep maroon, actually), but has longer leaves. However, I can check my older pictures of smaller plants what they looked like. This will have to wait until next week, however. None of my other plants from that group has such a red colour which your plant has.

I should also have pictures of quite a few tubers. If you need anything, it may be an idea to contact me directly via email.

Cheers

thanks for all the replies.

I already grow D. tubaestylis and it has light pink tubers [photo tubers] [photo plant] so I don't think it's D. tubaestylis.

B2 may be D. aff tubaestylis if the tuber color is right, in fact this plant tends to form clumps.

E2 I don't have any idea. It's very similar to B2 but the tuber is different and the leaves are more rounded. I don't think it's a macrophylla ssp because the leaves are too rounded and my plant has no visible petiole.

this plant is not completely opened yet but I think it's easy anyway.

I say D. erythrorhyza ssp erythrorhyza.

I don't think it's collina because the tuber looks more like the typical form.

I will wait the full growth for confirmation. Am I right?
