Whatever they are called, they are definitely magnificent. This was a fresh arrival in the flower store, but there will be more to come when it opens its bud: a fascinating plant. I asked the lady in the store, who has become quite a good acquaintence, what they are called. She had to look at the label, but that was the name she told me. I even found it in Internet.
Magnificent!

I see them now and again in the flower store, but they are not cheap.
