Is that the start of the flowering spike? I've seen squill get really tall, but there are a lot of difference in the flowering behavior of different varieties.

Yes, it is GT. I'm excited, because it didn't bloom last year because I transplanted it the year prior.

I'm excited to see it. Looks to be a unique one. I'd love collecting these.

I have an old picture of its flowers way back at the beginning of my pics. Page 51, third row last picture :)
