Does anyone recognize this flower? I made the mistake of dividing up this very large plant several years ago and all 5 divisions went into deep depression and refused to bloom until now. Finally this division has bloomed again! The flowers are big and look very much like pictures I have seen of Miltassia Aztec (without the white on the lip) and a little bit like Charles Fitch, too. Since I now have 5 baskets of this plant, it would be nice to know what it is! Thanks for any suggestions!

I think I found it. Doesn't it look like A-65? Miltassia (A65 Mtssa.Charles M.Fitch
'Dark Monarch' AM/AOS)

I agree, it looks like a dark star but which clone
Could be Mtssa. dark star 'Orchidworks'
or perhaps -- Mtssa C.M. fitch 'Dark Monarch'.

But anyways, certainly a beautiful job on that one, Susan
