Aspidistra flower?
I've had my Aspidistras outside for years but the pot was getting overcrowded. As it was overcast and not too hot today, I cut back all the old leaves and emptied the pot. I removed all the old soil and hosed the split plants when I came across what looks like a flower. It is definitely attached to the plant. I have repotted but now into two large pots as there were so many but the one with what looks like a flower is in a pot of it's own.
Does anyone know what to do next please and is it a flower?
It's the funny shaped thing close to the centre of the dustbin lid.

Thanks Derek and Hywel. I have looked for flowers for a few years and read somewhere that they are tiny and pollinated by slugs and snails. That ugly little critter was not what I would have expected to see and wouldn't have if I didn't repot.

Hi, yes it is a flower, a peculiarity of Aspidistra, is that they get their flowers usually just above the roots, you don't need to do anything special, just carry on doing what you normally do, Derek.
