I think you are spot on. There's not much to differentiate L. regale from the trumpet hybrids, except that the hybrids tend to be much more flashy, and the true species L.regale has a less desirable umbel flower spike, rather than a central stalk. (Besides me) who wouldn't rather have the "better" forms?
