Gosh this is really unusual, not seen anything like it before.
How large is the plant?

Hi Sal, this is the smaller variety, compared to the Manicata. I've had mine for about 6 years now and they are about 3 feet across.

Yes, thick and waxy and not sharp at all. It was quite big but quite hidden under the gunnera leaves, until we exposed it!
