I'm fairly certain, one was an Optimara, named 'Nancy', which appears to have been in the Rhapsodies series.

I then went to the avsa.org to page 5 (for R). Then I saw a Richter's Green Dawn Lrgtt, & it actually appeared to be much more like that one !

Because, the one I had was large pink, very ruffled, & slightly green on undeveloped blooms.

Maybe it was an honest mistake, although I don't know for certain, if that one from Richter's is old enough, to be it.
While Optimara's Rhaphsodies (series ?) Nancy was from 1988, & therefore has been around, for long enough.

Nancy, must still be rather fairly popular (After all these years !) , as I saw leaves offered, for $8. (No idea of minimum order, or cost of shipping.)
Though I still think Richter's appeared to be more like it, although the blooms did get rather large, on Nancy.
Which I did not verify the bloom size for Richter's pink ruffled one, which did resemble it more...
