bat plants

Yes I agree, I think they maybe a bigger plant but the flower, being white, cant have the same wow factor, although its still a very strange one.
The one in your picture Marley looks almost like some alien being.

 

Dunno if it helps but they were advertising these plants on the QVC channel. If you go to their site it might tell you something. They were talking about them being grown outdoors but I don't think that's an option

 

Thanks Cajary and Marley.

This is getting expensive, £9 per plant +£5 P&P.
It also says that delivery time will be quoted after payment and as to wether the plant is out of stock.
I never have trusted the Dutch growers, their plant catalogues are far too false in picture and text.

I would guess that the rumour that these can be grown outside, started in Holland, Cajary.

The T&M tubers were sent direct from Holland and it was snowing here at the time, god knows what conditions they endured in their trip to England

 

My bat plant is in the dining room and got 5 new leaves coming on it! bought it last year after flowering so I hope it flowers this year.

 

So you bought a growing plant, TO?
