Hi, Dilip ji, See the link, which states that there are also yellow- and bronze-flowered forms: http://www.toptropicals.com/cgi-bin/garden_catalog/cat.cgi?uid=holmskioldia_sanguinea%20 (lots of pictures). I don't think shape of flower is any different. See the picture of Yellow coloured forms: http://www.toptropicals.com/pics/garden/05/5/5789.jpg, http://crowleynursery.net/holmskioldia%20sanguinea%20yellow190.jpg, http://www.caldwellhort.com/graphics/collector-images/Holmskioldia-sanguinea-Yellow-200sq.jpg, http://www.hear.org/starr/plants/images/species/?q=holmskioldia+sanguinea (lots of pictures including Yellow coloured forms)
