Scadoxus multiflorus in its final form!

that's got to be one of the best bulbs around, just excellent meanie..

Wow - I'm speechless!!!!

Looking good!!

Me too!

Thanks for your replies!

totally amazing ~ geometric i think,
meanie the bat flower is like waiting for a baby to arrive, everytime i see you have posted a photo i go to see if the bat flower is out!!!!

Deffo geometric Sticki.
I'll do another tomorrow - it's starting to darken up now and doesn't photograph so well with the flash.

with a black backdrop?
its just about the most amazing flower i have ever seen

Very cool!

Sticki - when the other is in full bloom I'm gonna line the two of them up in front of a green background.
Much of its impact is the fact that it's about a hundred flowers all out at once!

Thank you Lil!

that will be excellent, im looking forward to it
is your bat plant having a rest or does it only come out at night?

I've put it out for the night as it's so mild. It can get a little morning sun now!

It's gorgeous - I take it they like morning sun Meanie.

Thanks Scottish!
It's the Bat Flower (Tacca chantrieri) which is out for the night. The Scadoxus prefers indirect light.

bat out for the night ~ like putting the cat out!!

Sorry Meanie, I did read all the comments, I just didn't pick up on this.

Goodness Gracious, Great Balls of Fire!!!

Deffo what I would call a high impact bloom!

Amazing:)

Thank you Nana!

That's definitely a 'wow' plant! :-))

Spritz - it went from nothing to this in about ten days!
