I just bought this clem and it had an Ernest Markham tag in it, but I don't think it looks anything like the pics that I've seen of Ernest Markham. Do you know what this guy is? It looks a whole lot like Niobe, but the stepals are a bit more curled/rainbowed than Niobe instead of flat and the color is much, much darker than Niobe. A dark raisin color. The color on the pic is very, very close to the actual plant. Thanks for the help!
