Wow! Those are breathtaking! :)

Thanks Stephanie!

What is that red and green one in the back????

The red one in the back is x johnsonii. The green you are seeing is mostly an illusion. The light was so bright when I took the picture that the green of the grass is reflected in the white areas of the flower making them look green in the photo. I'll have to post a close up of the red one so you can see the true coloration better. The true coloration is more like the amount of green that is showing in the pink one in this photo. Any guess what the pink one is? Could it be a mutation of x johnsonii of some sort? It is almost certainly sterile. Not all the flowers had a stigma, and some of the stigmas are deformed.

The other one you see in the background, is that the same as the one up close? If so can you take a picture of that one?

I doubt this is xjohnsonii but a non-mutated flower would be beautiful :)

All 3 of these bulbs were supposed to be xjohnsonii. But the two pink ones clearly are not. The vendor agreed what I got isn't true to type and is sending me replacement bulbs for the 2 pink ones. I get to keep the 2 pink ones, and am now trying to guess what they are=) I'll post a closeup of the red one next time I'm at the computer with my photos.

Here's a close up of the red one. Apparently in my excitement I didn't take a straight on shot=) And the bloom has faded now.

Here's a strait on shot of another of the blooms in the same bed.

The amount of green varied a bit from bloom to bloom, but these two shots show colors pretty accurately.

The above picture is really lovely, I really like this one..

I got a response back from the vendor, and they have confirmed that some bulbs of another unknown variety got mixed into the H. johnsonii bulbs by mistake. So the pink one is definitely not a H. johnsonii mutation of some sort. What it is however remains a mystery. The vendor was not able to id it. Does it look like any variety any of you are growing?
