Neal, Blooms on this NOID are much, much larger than Rubrum Species. The species rarely grow more than 3-4 ft. in height with blooms half the size of this NOID. Here are some pictures that are eye-level with me of the NOID. I would guess the flowers measure about 7 or even 8 inches across, and the petals are not as tightly reflexed as the species. The species seem to nod toward the ground, and I actually held the bottom center flower up to get that picture.
