My favourite large Eucomis. They bloom reliable for me so you should be ok from now on DD. I start mine in pots in the greenhouse, plant out mid to late June and lift for the winter.

Karen it is such a pretty flower, Amy it certainly was a lovely surprise, made up for all the slugs and snails that had used the garden for three weeks.....soon put a stop to that, now have dead slimy bodies all over the place....
Meanie thanks will bring ours under cover......
