Hippeastrum Cybister 'Santa Cruz'

Classified by its grower, Ludwig, as a cybister. But for me it it does not look like a cybister at all :-)

Small in size less than 3 inches, short scape, full of veins and the petals get frilly as it ages ...

'Mrs Garfield' is confused!

This bloom has 7 petals instead of the usual 6. Hope that it is regular for my future blooms :-)
