    This plant is from Ecuador and so far is the only plant known. The flowers are 7/8" tall. The close-ups are a side view, the lip up, and the lip down. The lip on this takes a bit of action to get it to trigger, but when it does it snaps shut really fast. Kinda like me. ;)

    It's really nifty. Points or no points. That is one nice plant.
    How come Dale's not begging?
