This is Coral Angel of Rinoa's. The bloom does not hold all of it's true colors. First time ever blooming for me and subsequent blooms can often show a difference, also conditions during blooming time.
I have seen a few photo's of this bloom from others, one in particular was David Clulow's and it was spot on to Rinoa's catalogue.

Brought it inside to try and have the photo show more of a Coral hue. Helped somewhat.

I know that this bloom will come true for you where you live and w the care you give. It may for me on next bloom cycle or next year?

Here she is as Rinoa's.

I wonder how temp affects adenium flowers. Some plant blooms fade in heat and intensify in cool weather, while others do the opposite. If you are cooling off, maybe it requires hotter days to have darker peachy colors?

This is true w the Adenium blooms, that the humidity and filtered light situation when buds are getting ready to open.
A friend in Australia keep her 'about to bloom' plants in filtered light. Although their temps. would also be quite high. It really makes a difference w Dark colors and some Yellows.
