Neal I haven't measured it, but last year the spadix was 20" long I think. It does look just like velvet with a glisten to it, even though it doesn't last long it's a lot of fun! It's drooping now, probably will be going soggy tomorrow.

kniphofia you Eucomis is early, mine haven't been out of the ground for long. Do you grow yours in the ground? I do have some other types in the greenhouse which are a bit further on, but no flowers.

Tammy we have had some warmish weather too, a little cooler now, my first lilies are close to opening. It's a bit sudden after having so much cold weather isn't it!

For the benefit of those who may not have seen it, my Calla Gem Lavender has 3 leaf spathes now, this is the first of them.....there is a total of 8 spathes so far made, this one is a different colour to the first three but on the same plant.
