Comments

Fl. 106 mm wide; perianth segments very broadly ovate, somewhat truncate, slightly mucronate, spreading, concave, with margins minutely incurling at apex, smooth, overlapping half; the inner segments narrower, rounded at apex, with margins a little wavy; corona very shallow bowl-shaped, faintly ribbed, yellow, with a broad band of bright orange-red at rim, frilled, with rim dentate and in places more deeply notched. Resembles a smoother ‘Silent Beauty’ of more consistency as a show flower.
