    I like the "ram's horns" of the lateral sepals. Attractive flowers though I must admit I prefer the yellow cultivar 'Kathy's Gold'.

    Me too Ron complicated ????? maybe need further DNA study for clarification most of the lobbii even from Pahang ( West Malaysia) they are all very nice and sweet smell , in contrast the smell of this one is terrible.
