After me fearing it wouldn't look like the picture on the vendor's website (that it would look more like a "normal" Jennifer Palermo, instead of the splash of colour that's shown on the website), I think it maybe will have pretty saturated colour. Now, since it hasn't opened yet, it's hard to tell, but considering how much colour that has "bled" through to the backside of the petals/sepals, it's not impossible I'll get a winner this time around (have been fooled before by pictures on the vendors' sites)!
Here it is in its cerise and spotted glory

It has lifted up from the spike, which I've noticed the buds on the violacea hybrids I have, tend to do when it's time to open.
Exciting bud, Jennifer Palermo
