Dave et al,

Further to my wondering what happened to the stuff on the Eucomis page on
the wiki.... here are the links to the pictures themselves.  If these wrap
over the end of the line the links won't work, but you'll need to copy and
paste them into your browser rather than just clicking on them.

The purple-leaf with white flowers shoots almost black when it first
emerges, fadign out to deep purple leaves when fully unfurled.  Over the
course of the season they slowly fade until at flowering they are green
with an overlay of bronze, topped by a 1m or so tall stem of whit flowers.

The purple-leafed with pink flowers shoots dark purple, then the leaves
slowly fade to green by flowering.  This has attractive pink flowers which
I rather love.  Only a couple of feet tall though.

The dwarf white I have had a couple of IDs for so I have left it unnamed.

Hopefully this'll allow those who are interested to enjoy the pics I have
put up.

Cheers.
