My first ever Eucomis. You can see why they call it the Pineapple Lily!

Eucomis is one of my favourites. The bulbs you buy are usually on the small side; give them a couple of years and they'll be much bigger.

Eucomis what a lovely unusual plant, have never seen one. Also like the Fuchsia Hawkshead. My Springtime you gave me isn't quite as good as yours but it is coming :)
