That is a gorgeous photo of Tigridia pavonia. I've never seen a Tigridia with a color quite like it. Could it be a hybrid? Or is it definitely full T. pavonia? Was it a random occurrence or were you trying to develop something like that? I'm jealous to hear you have Rigidella orthantha. I just found a place that has it for sale and purchased one. It should arrive in a couple weeks.
