    I saw this plant as part of a display put on by a friend at Bournemouth show last week. I asked the name, and admired it, and he said If you like it, I can find you a bit. I said I did, and he asked if I was going to Wessex show ( which was yesterday). When we were packing up after the show, he brought me the same plant - this one - and said here you are...
    It's good to have friends.
    Four spikes, and a bit heavy to carry ( for an old man) Also in the largest size of pot i would use, so I guess I have to repot, and maybe divide. A labour of love !
