I thought this might be the Flame Lily ( Gloriosa superba) before fully opened, but I am not so sure. Any ideas? In the glasshouse at RHS Wisley and definitely tropical.
(With the opening of my new Cornish blog I have decided to abandon the 60mm macro site and will in future post macro images on the site I consider the most appropriate. )

Looks very tropical Jude, but I have no idea what it is except beautiful!!!
Hopefully Sarah will find out for me.
Awfully pretty Jude. Just realised you’re not turning up in my Reader because I wasn’t following you. Silly me! I shall follow devotedly henceforth xx
