    wow what an awesome loking flower. I assume they are tropical in nature and won't grow well in northern climates?

    No idea but it looks like something Dr. Seuss would contrive. Really a unique flower regardless.

    They are beautiful aren't they? My mom has one growing outside, she was able to keep it in the house last winter but she said towards March it was looking poorly. Its growing over everything where its at right now, unfortunatly she'll have to bring it in soon.
    It gets a flower or two now and then and they're only open for a day i think.
