This photo includes one of my fingers holding the flower stem to provide a size perspective. The bloom stems are very long and are blown easily by the wind which was quite strong on this day as shown in the photo. (A very difficult bloom to photograph even in a slight breeze, have found it difficult to capture its true color with a digital camera)
