I've grown this variety before, and have another plant of it. However, this particular, individual bulb was new to me in early October 2023. Oddly, it has taken over 6 months to finally decide to flower. This is a bulb that had been conditioned by the seller to be forced to bloom around Christmastime 4 months ago.

**************

Some people say that "Red Lion" and "Olaf" are the same variety.
I have grown both and disagree. I see differences.
