This colossal flower grows up to 8.4 feet (2.6 meters) tall. Its gray-green stem is thin and straight, and the miniature, yellow and orange-yellow leaves are stiff, pointed with smooth edges. Many leaves grow along the entire length of the stem.

Two small flowers sit at the end of the stem. The flowers are 48 cm (18.9 inches) wide, with solid magenta petals and a crimson central disk. The flower head is made up of 9 petals in raised layers. They are very delicate.
