I first saw one ~40 yrs ago at a friend's parent's home. (funny how some memories
stay with you).

It was in a pot "in" the living room window, and I remember how the whole plant...
the large bulb, stately stalk, leaves, & especially the large beautiful scarlet
blooms (3!)....totally impressed me.

They are elegant plants.
And , make excellent banners & Christmas presents.

I inherited this from my late grandmother, repotted it, and made it bloom again...
Its been there since I was a child. So at least some 20 years old....
