Anyone willing to wager a guess at this one?

I'm guessing another warcsewiczianum In a 6" S/H pot

The label states "Phrag longifolium warcsewiczianum". It's certainly not longifolium. I suppose it could be a hybrid of the two, making it Wossner Supergrande...
 
It's very nice; but, it's NOT a species. I don't think it's Wossner Supergrande. It's nowhere near dark enough. It looks like a regular Grande to me.
 
I have seen an amazing range of forms and appearances in both Mont Fallu, (Grande x longifolium) and in Grande itself, also in Gigantifolium. This plant could be any one of the three. Marilyn Ledoux has from the same seed pod a Mont Fallu that looks all Grande and a Mont Fallu that looks mostly longifolium. So Mont Fallu is certainly still a possible candidate.

Definitely not the species, sheath leaves are too pointed, flowering is clearly not simultaneous, etc.

Nice flower.
