Comments

Perianth segments broadly ovate, blunt, very slightly mucronate, spreading, concave at apex, smooth, overlapping half; inner segments more narrowly ovate, sometimes truncate, a little inflexed, with margins slightly wavy or incurved, sometimes creased at shoulder; corona disc-shaped, loosely ribbed, deep orange-red, mouth even, obscurely lobed, rim entire. Resembles a larger ‘Mahmoud’ of more vigorous habit.
