Ronald Losure replied to micritter:

Well, it is a very large flower. I think it is about 10 inches or 25 cm across. Is that how big it looks in the picture? It can't be seen in this photo, but the leaves are ultrahydrophobic en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultrahydrophobicity, meaning the contact angle of water on the leaf is greater than 150 degrees.
