What cat species is this?
Can anyone identify this species without the flowers?
It's in a 6" pot (about 16cm). The plant is 12-14" (28-32cm), without the pot. The leaves are about 3-1/2" wide x 4-1/2" long (8cm x 12cm)

Well, I guess I blew the mystery. My post shows the image of the plant only. I guess some other people's show the image info and not the image.
It's a division of a violacea. Anyway, here's a picture of the flowers. They are about 5" (13cm) each. Besides the flower size, the size and shape of the leaves are amazing.

Yes it was. Few years ago, someone looked at the plant and asked if it was a Den speciosum because of the leaves.
