    Hard to say for sure but I think that is a Colmonara Massai Red. Check out pictures and compare. Great velvety red though!!!

    Thank you all for the nice comments.

    Well, this guy finished blooming. But as I was checking the bulbs today I just found out that it's putting out another spike. I don't believe it's a new growth.

    What do you guys think?
