[Too Many Plants!]

Hi, Rimmer, that plant is amazing!! Press dry a piece of a green leaf for me, please...

Yes it is a Beschorneria!! I hadn't paid attention.

I hope the level of the river is lower now...

I wonder if it's that cross made by Martin Grantham? The flowers are for sure not B. Yuccoides, but to me look different than Septentrionalis.

I've moved the river discussion part to general discussion We're fine here now, but people at the (now not so blue) Danube are still in trouble. 

Anyway, the Beschorneria is originally from Cotsworld Garden flowers, so it's a pre-brexit order and was sold as basic septentrionalis, no special form or cultivar. They don't offer it anymore.
