    Yes, the flowers look like they are massive compared to the size of the plant (or is it the picture angles?)
    Very tropical colors, update the thread when the blooms are fully open

    Well the plant is on an 8 inch pot. The plant itself is big and so are the flowers. I haven't measured them yet but they are pretty big.
