let me be the first to say that I find it both bizarre and beautiful in the same instant. I'm having trouble getting a sense of scale...how big is it?

Scott,

Typically, this species is around 3 inches long... a nice species!

Hey Scott, it is a great and interesting plant.

The leaf is 1 inch long, I’m not sure I have seen them up to three inches but I have heard it from some different sources. The flower is just a small read spec on the center of the leaf.

Very cool! While I'm really not into mini flowers like this, the leaf and flower arrangement of this plant is neat. The leaf pattern and wavy margin is beautiful.
