I gave mine away as I buy these often when I find them in bloom. My TJ is usually loaded with these luckily.
I do not have great conditions for these plants to flower well any more, so I only buy them in bloom and then give them away. They are only $12.99 and last for two months, so great deal!
I do keep one, which is Den. Oriental Smile 'Fantasy' which I have had for a number of years now.
The reason is that this one seems uncommon, and even among the mericloned versions, I am yet to see the one with flower quality as great as mine, so this is a real keeper.
It is now in bloom, but only with a few spikes. better than nothing, though.

I'm not sure which one you are referring to, but the one you posted is nothing like Judy's plants.
Hers is Red Emperor 'Prince' which is deep magenta with dark "eye" with slight yellowish white around the center.
Luck Angel is white touched with magenta at the tip with yellow eye.
