I presume another example of the effects of lower light levels and cooler house temperatures. Anyone recognize this one?

That's a strange one, Dave. Hmm, assuming it normally has a white eye that limits the possibilities a lot. Could be First Love, Rebel Rouser, Saffron, The Right Stuff, surely not Cherry Appaloosa but the white eye........
interesting change in this one.

None of those but one of its parents is listed in Charlie's post. Here's another pic from the same day.

Hot Pepper or maybe even Chariots of Fire.

None of those either. I wish it was Firestorm. I blew it when I didn't order it. These are the first blooms on a fairly young plant. My first impression was that it's mislabeled because the main color is off, but the eye colors look right.

Yes, Raging Bull.
It doesn't look anything like it except for the eye. I wonder if it's quite variable under certain conditions like Chariots of Fire.

Coincidentally, while at the greenhouse yesterday I saw a Raging Bull flower and recognized it as a good candidate for this mystery bloom. I had never seen it with any color other than intense bright red before but there it was looking quite similar to Dave's mystery flower. I don't think we will see it like this very often but once more of them are blooming indoors around the world maybe we will. The summer color is bright red with yellow spotting and a bright white eye - definitely the look it was selected for.
