Gleni, I knew I had seen your bloom somewhere before when doing primary hybrid research.

It is a primary hybrid cross of C. forbesii and L. purpurata (Lc Cypheri). I remember seeing it because I love the veining in forbesii.

Here is an excellent example showing the bifoliate leaves, the green sheath, and the flowers.
