Norma....I had 3 H. diptera (one found in a local nursery, one as a NOID received in a trade and one I bought from David Liddle). All three looked like different species - VERY different species - until they bloomed. Leaves are SO fickle.

Here are two leaves, still on the plant...H. arnottiana. The smaller leaf is 3.5" long...and there are only 6 leaves on the plant!!!

I keep this picture handy to remind myself not to look at leaves!!! Sometimes it works :o}
