Confused as to the subtle difference between a basic Ricordea mushroom and Yuma variant.
How would you categorize these?

I'd guess all yuma. You can see a radial trend in some of the bumps.
There's also something different regarding the proximity of bumps to the mouth as a differtiator vs floridea.

I have three really nice ricordia mushrooms and they don’t look anything like those. I would say those are all Yuma mushrooms. This is a picture of my orange ricordia.
