Judging from the leaves and rapid growth I definitely thought it was a purpurea...

Too bad, the sepal test could not be made as I stripped the plant before. The flowers are definitely proudly growing upwards and I find it hard to believe that they will bend over and grow downwards as usual purpureas always do...

Also, the seeds are gigantic (purpurea seeds are not that big normally). Judging from the relatively normal bloom I would not expect big seeds.

Maybe this is Sydney as you said. Does Syndey have gigantic leaves normally...

Here is a sepal photo. Sorry I don't have a better photo.
