This hybrid tends to resemble flabellata more prominently.  It produces many red bracts, soft green recurving leaves, and a large growing size (I suppose most of these characteristics also generally apply to fasciculata, but fasciculatas generally have thicker, stiffer leaves that can handle more light)
