Eucomis - Topic of the Week

Hi David,
Just a note about the height of Eucomis pole-evansii spike, although my
own plants are still young - I have noticed it in flower at the Sydney
Botanical gardens growing in a sunny bed beside a glasshouse - and the
spikes do reach between 5 and 6 feet.
So apart from plant variability it could be climatic factors that
bring out its full size and flowering potential.
Cheers
