Sprekelia Formosissima...(Aztec Lily)...11th June '10

how gorgeous is that......

I can't understand why its flowering Michaella...i planted 3 of them in a pot just over a week ago and this stem just grew straight up and opened into this ...I was amazed...no leaves....

Super instant result :o)

They're lovely! You clearly talk really nicely to your plants!!!
We had them last year with similar results (not anything like nine days though),
but nothing this year. Apparently they will not tolerate frost at all.

I have put these on my wish list great colour ... :: o ))

Thanks all....I'll remember that Meanie and take them in early....

Can't believe my eyes, this is so unique :)

Never come across this before, what a mouthful and what a stunning image ! Obviously a plant in a hurry. :-)

Seems to be Muddy.....Another flower stem is shooting up....After this they'll probably never flower again, knowing my luck lol....Like your picture...:>))

Keep your fingers crossed ! (The picture was the best of a bad lot ... lol). :-)

thats incredible, what a beauty.
