Description

The flowers of this species droop when in bud, then turn up to reveal pale yellow petals, tinted lime-green along the midrib with this zone surrounded by crimson.

The outer tepals are waisted and turn back on themselves; the tips turn back in, forming an urn-shape, with yellow anthers in the centre around a greenish basal blotch.

A distinctly different Asian species, which grows well here outside with no special treatment.
