Compare with the "Other observations" carousel: this has erect anthers and the other has hanging anthers.
One of these IDs (at least!) is thus the wrong species.

I so agree! This was a FOTH outing and this is the ID they came up with! I did see the previous posting for this after posting ob. and yes the stamens are way way different. Area not right either. Still very beautiful and not one I'd seen before.
