    Wow the petals on that bessae is amazing! The niveum is also very pretty and you have taken a shot of the best part of the spicer which is the lovely coloured staminoidal shield.

    thanks for sharing!

    I can measure when I get home but these pics may help give some better perspective. The besseae pot is about 6 inches tall:
