The flower is 4.5 cm large, with the petals (pengban) curled outward in a true three-star shape, bright and evenly distributed spots, and a small, centered column (nose). Based on observation of the current flowers and two photographs from the original flower owner, the bloom form is confirmed to be quite stable, with strong fragrance, blooming twice a year. Detailed historical records are still being collected and organized. Cultivation practice has shown that medium-sized plants produce better bloom form than extra-large vigorous plants, with more spots and brighter colors.
