Dick, I don't have any photos of mine that quite match your photo. One of the problems with substitutions is that growers throw in anything they have to fill an order. That are not always registered varieties. It is lovely though.

Looks a little like Gervase.

Gervase certainly could be a possibility. It doesn't look quite like mine, but Gervase has a lot of variation in patterning. Even on the same bulb, the flowers can look very different.
