Hi Peter, That's the closest match yet. To my untrained eye, the yellow base color with peachy overtones, darker stripe on the back of the sepals and petals, red buds, and lack of crisping/undulation on the petals look very similar. I can't imagine how that would end up in a population of Dutch L. squamigera, though. Surely my plant must be a complex hybrid of some kind. This site says that L. x chejuensis is a hybrid of L. sanguinea, L. chinensis, and L. flavescens. http://um.u-tokyo.ac.jp/publish_db/Bulletin/… L. chinensis is available from some of the big bulb vendors (perhaps of Dutch origin?), and some L chinensis hybrids on the web look vaguely like my plant. Is it plausible that I have some unexpected hybrid between L. chinensis and an unknown parent? Hmm, the wiki says that L. squamigera might be L. chinensis x L. sprengeri (if it isn't L. longituba x L. sprengeri). Some weird selfing or cross with an L. squamigera that was only 99.99% sterile?
