Interesting breeding involving Stout's altissima-based CHALLENGER and Lonnie Ward's BLOODSTREAM with a Lambert thrown in!  Full sibling to PACK HUNTER.  This is a very showy flower in coppery red with a blue sheen and a darker oxblood band.  The sepals are pinched and hooked.  Throat is cadmium yellow to olive green.  Healthy blue-green foliage.  One of the best increasers I have seen, incredibly vigorous great potential as a landscaping plant!  Fertile both ways.   Pack Hunter and Royal Flycatcher produce very tall progeny, up to 7 feet.  see below:
