This is Blc. Brian Wheeler 'Grandson'. Flowers can be 8 inches / 20 cm!
Blc. Pamela Hetherington 'Coronation' gets as large, or larger:
Blc. King of Taiwan 'Orchis' Gets into the 8 inch / 20 cm range as well:
This is Lc. Summer Belle 'Miss Liberty'. Athough the flowers have a more open form, they can get just as large as the others:
