Here's the link; scroll down the page to see the plant. IMHO, this plant is quite remarkable. Seeing it almost scared me because it looks a lot like something I imagined many years ago before anyone knew about A. sarian. It does not look like the same Sarian as seen in David Burnett's monograph, except for the white veins. The leaf lobing on this one is really startling - it is what I would expect to get from crossing A. sarian with A. portei, then backcrossing with A. sarian again. I'd expect a whole raft of seedling variations, some of which might look like the commercial A. sarian. According to the blog, the plant is native to the Philippines. Click on the picture and you'll get a much larger high resolution version which is even more stunning than the little picture on the blog.
