Amarygia progress

Bill asked:
How good is the pollen (in appearance) on this plant, versus the other
amaryllis you have? Do you recall if the foliage was different in any way
such
as a bit glaucous?
The pollen looks normal. I found an old photo of these bulbs in leaf, and
labeled the one that produced the twisted tepals. The two bulbs that look
the most glaucous in the photo are of course the ones that haven't bloomed
yet.

If I had to guess, I'd say my twisted flower is just a Hannibal cross that
happens to have twisted tepals.
