It had to be moved Sticki ,the sun was beating down on it making it droop , this took ages to come through Angela I had almost given up on it , red sounds nice ! It does Sandra but it has to be tucked away for the winter months .....

A bulbil in this case is just a small bulb that starts growing in the top of the flower stem.

Is this a pineapple plant. Looks similar to the ones we grew when we lived down the road from here.
