As a personnal challenge, I have been trying to get one photo that records as much as possible about the flowering of this common houseplant. This comes as close as I have so far. The plant joined our household over 20 years ago when our daughter brought it home as a gift. It did not start flowering until we had had it 20 years but has put on the show each Spring for the last three years. The spidery flowers are in groups which only have one or two blooms open at once. Yesterday's blooms can be seen wilted and about to fall. There is no top to bottom sequence of bloom as in gladioli (for example) but open flowers can be found all along the stalk. Smaller flowers seem white but become more greenish as the petals become longer and thinner. The flower stalks (we have two in the pot which contains several plants) are 12 and 15 inches tall and have flower groups on the top half of their height. The photo also shows a few of the tiny droplets of clear, sticky liquid at the base of most flower groups. This is shown a bit better in the shot of the single flower also in the Flora gallery. The photo does NOT show the somewhat strong odor produced by the flowers. Since both my wife and I are bothered by strong odors, it is hard to say whether most people would find this pleasing or offensive. It can be detected in our house well into the next room but is nowhere as offensive to us as, for example, Easter Lilies.
