It's about 24in wide San, but I think there's only about 3 or 4 flowers. It's dark outside so I'll check tomorrow, if I remember, that is! LOL!
9 Apr, 2011

Hi Sanbaz wow what a unusual plant not seen these before .:))))
16 Apr, 2011
iv just posted a pic of them a week on, getting taller, look great when open and then when the flowers die you get huge leaves like rhubarb, great for shady moist areas or pond areas, out of sun ;o)
16 Apr, 2011
Looking forward to a picture of them flowering.:))
16 Apr, 2011
wont be long i thinks, another week tops ;o)
16 Apr, 2011
Mine are open Sanbaz, theyre about 2ft tall, your's will probaly be the same, I think they look very strange!
16 Apr, 2011
they do look strange the flowers coming first and are deffernatly taller this year, ideal where i have them as not alot of sun and ground stays moist. its nice to have something a bit unusual :o)
16 Apr, 2011
Unusual is the right word for them, they certainly are that!
