Looks like it is schlimii season. I've got two in bloom this year. The first is "Candy", a division from Ratcliffe. The flower is quite large (5,5,cm diameter). It is not as flat, but actually I like this swing in the petals.
The second is a little smaller but darker and flat, plus it branches.

The Jersey is interesting, since the flower appears to favour the dalessandroi parent, but the plant habit resembles besseae (climbing, non-branching inflorescense). I wish it was the other way round, but I'm happy with the flower anyway.

Wow, those are some fat pouches on those schlimiis! I have to echo the other comments - the first one is special.
