Very nice indeed. The lip does look like a morning glory flower, hence it's name I guess.

Thanks, Kim and Don.
I like its intense color on the lips and I also think that's why it gets the clone name.

Love this one - the lip is amazing! Have seen several remakes of the cross with different lip colors so obviously connected to the color variety of purpurata used.
