ups.com... Hullo! And when I thought that was it - the gloriosa is flowering
again. There's a huge seedpod too - what would you do now? Remove the
seedpod to encourage more flowers? Looks like I have another 3
buds )

I've had no luck at all this year with mine. If I were you I'd wait until
the seed pod is ready to be removed, take out the seeds and make a load more
of Gloriosas. I planted my tuber but it came up, got some green leaves,
they turned yellow, end of story. Maybe they like it more ericacious, I
don't know.

Mine do that when they have been kept under extremely dry conditions,
with no food and I have also had them do this, in the first year of
planting from seed. Mostlly the latter. Feed it next year with some
bulb food.
