Looks great, Uri! Very nice color... unusual for the species. Do you know the grex on this one?

That is gorgeous. Good photo, also -- as always.

No it might be a collected one, as far as I know this clone is at least 50 years old

Interesting... looks a bit like the Lindenia plate labeled "lawrenceanum var. ardens" Very unusual color in the petals, though. Gorgeous bloom!
