More evidence that the cross is mis-labeled, not just your plant. In the other picture you found the flower did not get the dramatic vini color of your plant but otherwise is very similar. It shows the strong charlesworthii influence even more clearly.

There isn't much doubt that this flower is a Maudiae type x charlesworthii. As mentioned above, there is no evidence of gratrixianum or a complex hybrid.
