This lip!

I love the color

Ive seen online that there may be some dispute as to the name

There were two in bud for sale at the show, one with the bud almost open and another with one half emerging from the flower sheath. I decided to have him hold the one delayed a little so I could get it home and to work where they could watch it open, without damaging the flower. It emerged very quickly! Not quite as quickly as that amaryllis that’s flowering now but trichopilia fast
 
Very nice! It can be even nicer in cool conditions with a deep yellow colour.

I remember the dispute about the label. The plants which arrived in europe are not distinguishable from Pln. Shantung 'Ducat' but clearly different from the original x confusa clone.
I wouldn't be surprised if there was a mix up in the early days of the Golden Gate clone but have no proof, so I keep the label with a question mark.
