The variety is called Dancing Queen. I grew it indoors for Christmas in 2020. After it bloomed I planted it outside in spring of 2021. Now it’s blooming for the first time after being forced indoors and it’s interesting because the flower looks completely different this time around. It’s larger and has more defined red and white striping. I live in the southern US where these can generally survive our winters outdoors so long as they are mulched well and have good drainage.
