I don't have any fancy camera equipment, and mine is a little ratty because I had it outside whete it got a little too hot too fast, plus it's flowering.
The scape is just over 12 inches tall, and the paddles are over two inches long.

Everything happens for a reason. Sometimes the reason is that I make bad decisions.

They all have a similar appearance, the main difference is size.
In the first pic, you can see a mature, actually older. D. capensis "Mini Red" to the right of the Matroosberg. Some paddles of the MP are bigger than entire leaves of the MR.

Oh, you're right! Is that a regia next to it?

Yes. I got that as a small root cutting strike last year. The guy I got it from said it wasn't doing well due to warmer than normal temps, so I put it on the windowsill and it's doing good. It took a few months to come around, but it's definitely a nice one.
