This might be a species galddie gladdie but has the look of a hybrid - but a dwarf version of the "Edna Everage" type.
I got it last month at our group's Plant Swap, already in bud.
Anyone recognise it?
The last pic shows it with a tape measure to give an indication of its size
cheers

That's a lovely rich colour Gail, enhanced by the water droplets. 
The form resembles papilio but ecklonii is sometimes mentioned too.  Is the parentage of 'Ruby' known?

Sown in January 2018 as something else & flowering now for the first time, what looks to me like G. priorii.
Confirmation or other suggestions welcome.
