This is far nicer than the pictures I have seen of this species before, the petals are wide, not rolled up like a typical Duvalia. Could this be a hybrid?

No, it is just one of many totally different clones.

Very unusual; great capture of the fascinating shape and textures; the centred composition really works for this blossom.
