Burgundy Pleated Petal

This short flower grows up to 2 inches (5 cm) tall. Its blue stem is thin, and the huge, burgundy leaves are pleated with irregular edges. Many leaves grow at the base of the stem, and a pair of leaves grow at the base of the flower head.

Two medium-sized flowers sit at the end of the stem. The flowers are 13 cm (5.1 inches) wide, with solid florescent yellow petals and a white central disk. The flower head is an uncoordinated mess of 42 curved petals. They are very delicate.

It has an intense scent that smells like meat, and it has a modest amount of pollen. It is pollinated by the wind, but is also visited by some specific types of insect.
