Hippeastrum Reticulatum var. Striatifolium

I bought this bulb from a hippie grower in Thailand several months ago. It's quite weak because the shipment took too much time. The bulb hasn't pulled out any new leaf for a long time. The miracle happened one month ago when it started to grow.
I study far away from my hometown and my hippie so i often go back home once a month. Last week, i went home and found it already pulled out a flower scape. This is the first flower of reticulatum var. striatifolium in Vietnam :)))





The leaf of reticulatum is different from the mrs. Garfield's. It has red back.
