Griffiths Index of Garden Plants gives the common name "Royal Paint Brush"
to S. Puniceus. Maybe this is what the guide was referring to. Sorry you
didn't have a better guide - most of them are excellent.

"Come to think of it, I saw many Scadoxus multifloras ssp? blooming in
the
shade at Lotusland in Santa Barbara, CA in early July. They were
larger in
all respects (inflorescence, scape, and leaves) than the one I grow in a
pot. I didn't see a tag, and the guide said that they were "some kind of
paint brush. They look like they come from Mars."
Dell,
Yes, S.m. katherina are somewhat larger and more open.
