A tall bulbous herbaceous perennial. Bulbs are 4.0-5.0 cm diam at first flowering, maturing to 7.0-8.0 cm, producing 1-2 offset bulbs annually. Leaves are strap-shaped, green, two to four per bulb, 55-65 cm long, 4.8-5.5 cm wide. Scapes are 50-60 cm tall, usually 3 per bulb, each bearing four flowers per scape with pedicels 4-6 cm long. The spreading funnelform perianth is 14.5-16 cm long, laterally 15 cm and dorsoventrally 14 cm wide. The six tepals are of medium texture. The outer tepals are 10-12 cm long, and 5-6 cm wide at their broadest; the inner tepals are 9.5-11 cm long, the inner laterals 7.5 -8.0 cm wide; the ventral inner ca. 6.5 cm wide. The tepals are striated marginally with a bright pastel salmon-red on their adaxial surface, with RHSCC red 41B the closest, with a broad white central keel. The throat is green at the base of the tepals, with a short ring of fimbrae at the throat. The tepals are similarly colored on their abaxial surfaces, with infusions of green towards the base. Stamens are 11 to 12 cm long, white for most of their length, green in the proximal 1.5 cm; pollen is yellow. The style is ca. 13 cm and colored similarly to the staminal filaments; the trifid stigma is ca. 6.5 mm wide. |
