Although there is something about the shape of the flower overall that slightly gives me pause, based on the staminode, I would say your plant is haynaldianum.

Here are some pics of my haynaldianums

And here is a closeup of lowii. You can see the staminode is a totally different shape and darker.

Hybrids between the two would take on more of the lowii staminode.

But i'm interested to hear what others think.

Nice plant by the way.
