With some plants, it’s obvious what they are from the moment they start to grow; others can leave you baffled for a few days. See if you guess this one before the last picture.
Got it? It’s crinum x powellii.

How many days did it take to bloom, Andrew? It's a lovely plant. I know it takes up a lot of room, though. :-)))

spritz - the first three photos were taken last weekend and Monday. I then went away for a few days and took the last one earlier today. Yes, they are big bulbs so need a bit of space

That set me in mind of a magician pulling a bunch of flowers from his (or her) sleeve ... or some sort of marine tube worm putting out its tenticles to feed. Very nice slow reveal photos :)
