Blooming again

Milton, FL(Zone 8a)

Here is this pink that Arlene shared with me.Any idea as to which one it might be?It has 4 points on the calyx,5 teeth on the corolla and flower length is 9 1/2 inches.Flower is nodding and is 7 inches wide.Leaves are dark green,non pubescent and are not serrated.As an added bonus,my honeybees loved the pollen on this one.there were a few in the corolla's of these all day long.
I crossed to Jutner Orange,both ways.It was the only other that was blooming.

Whatever it is,it's a beauty.You seemed to think it was Frosty Pink but later changed your mind.

well, calalilly identified it as so, and seems like every other week the forum got into a discussion about what frosty pink was.... can't remember why i changed my mind now, got a couple of cuttings from brugie of her frosty pink, waiting to check the leaves when they grow a little more. did your jean pasco bloom? i really like her!! have bloomson ecquador pink, she is a beauty too.
