This is a super hardy hybrid I'm surprised to not see more of in collections.  It's easy to care for, has a beautiful shape and colorful bloom.  The leaves are stiff but they gracefully recurve and hang long as the plant gets older, similar to exserta. Since you don't see it around often I'd grab it now while you can!
