I've had these plants for a few years. Each year they seem to surprise me with the different stages. Make sure you plant these flowers where you can see them every day or you will miss them going though the different stages.

I read all the reviews. For the people who had problems don't for get you can get replacements free. No reason not to rebuy them. Mine do great. this year they rebloomed 2 times. I have them under evergreens and they seem to move as the trees grow. I'll use the powder soap as one person wrote. Must be in shade. Have had them for 5 or more years. Great plant.

This was my VERY favorite flower in Colorado. We recently moved to Iowa where I am planning to feature these incredible flowers again. The leaves are gorgeous and the flowers are truly show stoppers! They spread and are beautiful all season. One tip: sprinkle a little powdered soap into the paper-like encasement when the flowers are forming to keep the earwigs at bay.

This plant draws the most attention from my visitors than any in my collection. It is so unique!

This plant is one of my absolute favorites! Great leaves, nearly evergreen. Fascinating spikes of yellow to orange, calla lily type flowers. year round interest, REALLY!

This plant never dies but only produced the candle for two years, but I have it in full sun. I am going to move it to shade this year and try it, I have had it for four years now. it was stunningly beautiful when the candle was on it.

This rose did great the first year, second year will be amazing. I had to move it the end of the summer, it still is going strong. Great plant specimen.
