    AMAZING! It's so beautiful... and sounds like it's a good size... I like the yellow colouration... though I haven't seen many or rather any of the ones with a white background...

    the petals are almost 7", and the natural spread and vertical spread are both about 7" as well. a few cultivars have the petals straight out like roth and those are very impressive, since the petals tend to be longer than straight roths.
    May I use your picture as a basis for a mosaic?
