Funny, but not true. If there isn't a warm light coming from somewhere on the left, then the red is an oversaturated hue in your photo. Nonetheless, the flowering is great.Hum... maybe from your screen...oke:
I agree, left side of the pouch is reddish. The stem is reddish too. The petals have yellow, red, yellow colors. This is the most colorful clone I've ever seen if the colors are true. But the form and size are excellent.
Congrats
You're right.
Yes, I retouched the picture, not to change flower color but a little contrast and mostly the background. Why? Because my first picture was not as fine as I wished.
If I look at this Yweyshen picture, It's a little too yellow.
If I look at mine, it's probably a little too red but depend too of the screen. Less red on my personal computer than my work computer.
The truth is probably between those 2 pictures.
So, I gave this ironical reply to Slipperfan because his subliminal message seemed to evoke a desire to cheat of my part. And it's not. That' all.
I will try to be better next time about reality color.
The main thing is that I can see this plant every day in its true "Yellow Red" color!

What an incredible plant and flower! Stunning!
Yes, some color combos stymie digital cameras attempts to reproduce them, and screens all look different. With my last camera, bright red and especially flowers that had blue and red together it couldn't figure out and I didn't have the skill to adjust the color
awesome - thanks for the 'retouched' photo.

Based on what you said, Fabrice, I wonder if this is closer to the color of this lovely clone?

Late the post, just superb growing and blooming.
Not really. I see it to brown on my screen. But thank you to try.
I took many pictures. I will see this week end if one is completely representative of the color, even if the global quality is less good.
