Cyclanthaceae, Carludovica palmata
This was such an eye-catching flower, seen at the Calgary Zoo on 8th September 2011. I'm a bit confused, though, because I thought (before I saw this plant with the red parts) that the flowers were the tiny "four-petalled" parts that form such a beautiful pattern. Known as the Panama Hat Palm.
