What's Doin' the Bloomin': Sinningia 'Zillanova'

Meet Sinningia 'Zillanova' This is a really nicely indestructible hybrid of Sinningia bullata crossed with something I can't track down today.
The Kartuz catalog describes the plant as, "Showy deep salmon pink flowers above attractive bubbly textured leaves. Large, easy grower. New Sinningia hybrid by Jim Steuerlein." 

I was curious about the white line patterns in the flowers. I thought I was doing something to the buds. But, the only other photo I could find on the internet of this plant also shows the interesting line pattern.
This plant went through very hot conditions and still kept nice looking leaves. It seems to be a winner!
