Default Another great Bill Thoms cross.
Got this Bulb Grace Thoms (echinolabium X paluense) last year as an unbloomed seedling, haven't seen any others in bloom so I don't have a reference point for the grex. It has the size and shape of the paluense parent, the recurved petals and lip of the echinolabium. All in all a lovely little flower.

Thanks Cody, the slightly cooler weather we have been having, low 90's instead of high 90's, has really set off the growth cycle in my Bulbos. Looks like it's going to be a great fall.
