I thought I planted akatsuki no umi here, but it looks more like royal robes.

Hi Lisa,

Akatsuki no Umi or the types that look the closest to Umi lack a white(nil) outer edge..you can scroll down to the appropriate comparison on this thread here
http://davesgarden.com/forums/t/614802/
and the bloom you posted above in coloration looks to me to most closely match the Royal Robe I entered into the PlantFiles here
http://davesgarden.com/pf/showimage/84502/
most of the leaves surrounding the bloom you posted are apparently from another Family of plants,but I do see a couple Ipomoea nil leaves 'hidden' in the picture that roughly look to be the cicada and/or dragonfly type...

Thanks for the sideview showing the sepals,but in this case,the sepals are non-specific...

Please post some frontal shots of the flowers and of the leaves to this MG as the blooms continue...and thanks for sharing(!)...

TTY,...

Ron

Yea, I am pretty sure it is Royal Robes. I was kind of surprised because in my mind I had planted something else.
