H. bukasovii hybrid

I purchased this bulb from Komoriya several years ago and each time it blooms, I become more puzzled as to its parentage. Has anyone else flowered this variety? If H. bukasovii is the 'pod' parent, very few of its characteristics show up in this F1 cross, other than the crimson coloration and perhaps the shape of the flower. The stigma of this hybrid flower is pink and the only other species that show this trait seem to be H. calyptratum and H. yungacense. I originally speculated that this was a cross of bukasovii and mandonii. Now I am leaning more towards bukasovii x yungacense. Does anyone have any thoughts?
