Another questionable Sandie?

[Bjorn]

Check this out, I am a bit uncertain whether this is the real thing, something about the shoulders possibly a MK?

seems to have the prerequisite white ovary

 

[Bjorn]

you are right about that, but there is something unusual (i.e. wrong?) about the shoulders... We have had this story up in ST several times and I never know what to think.

The shoulders aren't as reflexed as most sandies I've seen. The sepals are a little too red to me. Maybe MK or Shin Yi-Sanders (MK x sandie)?

It doesn't quite look right to my eye either. But then the buyer is not getting that plant.

 

[SlipperKing]

It looks like the real McCoy to me but like David said, that ain't the plant you're getting. It will be awhile before you see the flower from that seedling. The seller has 408 marks at 100% so they seem honest enough.

PS. the first flower (in background) has the typical petal maturity for me. the last, front one, hasn't finished opening.

The flower looks to me to be a Michael Koopowitz. Sanderianum is very extreme in it's form. This one is not so. Also, the petals are too red and WAY too short. I've never seen a sanderianum with such short petals.

The petals thing was my thought, also.
