Sounds like it might be pardancanda norrisii, a plant originating between
a cross of Belamcanda and Pardanthopsis. The original batch of seeds
I started with many years ago had many colors and combinations of
colors. Now after about 25 years, it has dwindled to an orange/yellow and
a strawberry/white, all the others having disappeared over the years.
