I have some pictures now (not great but you can see it) and It has finally put out one "normal" flower with all 6 petals ( one out of nine flowers, not the best ratio). I was going to put a link to the vendors site to show what it was supposed to look like but they have removed it already. Basically the picture they had looked very much like the 'Scarlet Baby' I've posted except the flowers were a little more trumpet shaped. The vendor is checking with her supplier and has planted a few herself to see what she gets but agrees it definitely isn't what their picture showed. There is one more stalk developing on this bulb and I'm anxiously waiting to see what they turn out like.
