That's what I call making a statement Simbad.

A beauty!

Gos that is a big one......

Thanks:-) covered in buds this year.
Is getting a bit large DD but such a lovely shape don't want to spoil it by pruning it, its got a bit off space left yet before I have to :-)

Oh wow, lucky you. I didnt realise they flowered so early - I must check mine, only set it just after Christmas and its grown well, I'd go and check now but its raining .... again.

This does seem really early this year Dawn, seem to remember it usually starts flowering around christmas?, raining here too has been all day, still had a good day clearing and tidying the greenhouses ready for all the non-hardy plants :-)

Hi Kathy, how strange its flowering now, bit like my yucca. I thought they usually flowered around December. Maybe its the recent wet weather that has brought them on. Drizzle here too today but I dont mind really. I've put my plants into the greenhouse too, as the coldframes are full. We had a frost here the other morning (Sat).
