READY SOON. A real rarity and a spectacular one, at that: this is a large plant with glossy leaves rather like a yucca and, in summer, tall shocking pink stem from which dangle red cylindrical bells tipped with green. Quite unlike anything else seen in your average garden! Likes the sun. Fertile well drained soil. 4-5 ft. in flower. 2 litre pot.

Admittedly borderline in terms of hardiness, so keep it sheltered and protect with fleece if the weather turns really wintry. Or try it in a big pot so it can be brought out of the cold.
