I do not live in Nevada anymore, but I still do not know what this cool little plant is!
Greetings - with regard to the Raffelesia - yes - that is (reportedly) the largest bloom of the flowering plants. But to the plant above, I'm not recognizing it but you are in Henderson so you may find it useful to show your picture to one of the botanists there at Acacia Demonstration Gardens, located at 50 Casa Del Fuego St, Henderson, NV . The Belagio also has a botanic garden but I can not swear to the range/scope of their gardens (We are talking hotel here!!). I've spent time in Vegas and am pretty sure there is at least one other botanic garden where you could get a name for this guy. Good luck!
