You can't even really tell from this picture, but this plant has the most stunning flowers. I mean, I like all kinds of plants, but I was arrested seeing these on the lunch table in the botanical garden greenhouse.
My cursory internet research (aided GREATLY by a 94 year old woman who told me the genus) suggests that they might have been Bomarea kalbreyeri.
Apparently these things come from South America, grow like vines and can get up to 10 feet tall. Amazing stuff.
