good photo.! They are so difficult to photograph, because they are so "three dimentional".

Harry, my first thought was, Whoa...an upside down cyclopse. That's one strange and interesting little guy. How big is the bloom?

I just got this guy too! I love Scaphosepalums, they're so cool!!!

Scaph fimbriatum has flowers that are roughly 1/2" in length and they bloom sequentially from the same spike.

Scaphosepalum flowers always remind me of Audrey 2 from "Little Shop of Horrors". I sometimes fool around and talk to the plants hoping that they'd somehow say "Feed me, Seymour! Feed me!"

I love it! Such a different flower, I can easily see why you'd fall in love with a genus of such unique looking plants!
