C. guttata v grandiflora
 
I am not sure this is the correct name for this flower but it has bloomed for me 3 years in a row so whatever it is, it's a keeper!

The flowers are just over 3" (8 cm) across and have a lovely fragrance.

Beautiful and fragrant. What more could you ask for. Good growing.

Very nice Catt'. Possibly being C. guttata x C. bicolor, the registered name ( best known one anyway ) is C. Mrs. Mahler.
These appear to be quite varied in color and shape, this I would put down to the amount of different clones of either parent that could be used to make the cross.
