Massive rare plants<\/a> that can take decades\u00a0to\u00a0flower have “burst into bloom for the first time” at a garden in the United Kingdom, said SWNS, the British news service.<\/p>\n

And it’s all thanks to the heat wave.<\/p>\n

The furcraea longaeva grow to over 16 feet tall.<\/p>\n

BRITISH WOMAN GOES VIRAL FOR BRINGING DYING PLANTS \u2018BACK TO LIFE\u2019 WITH HYSTERICAL $5 HACK: \u2018GENIUS\u2019<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n

And they can take over 25 years to show flowers, SWNS noted.<\/p>\n

But for three plants, last year’s warm summer combined with a cold winter and now a hot spell have led to their blooming at the National Trust’s Overbeck’s Garden, near Salcombe, Devon, in southwest England<\/a>, said SWNS.<\/p>\n

The news that they’re flowering, however, isn’t necessarily the best, according to those in the know.<\/p>\n

It means the plants may be dead within the next two weeks, SWNS said.<\/p>\n

Gardener Sam Elliott planted them at Overbeck’s Garden a decade ago, he said.<\/p>\n

He told the BBC, “They can take 10 years to flower, but possibly up to 25 years, in some cases.”<\/p>\n

He also said, “It will leave tiny ‘bulbils’ that we will use to propagate future plants. It is very exciting to see them flower for the first time.”<\/p>\n

He also told the BBC, “It’s monocarpic, meaning it will flower once \u2014 then die<\/a> as it spends 10 years building up energy in leaves, stem and roots.”<\/p>\n

The plants are described a “huge, spiky (but soft) exotics from Mexico<\/a>,” according to Architectural Plants.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“After many years, they send out 30 foot yellow flower spikes.”<\/p>\n

Because of their size, they are “extremely noticeable,” the site also said.<\/p>\n

“They form a big fat trunk (to 6 feet after many years) and leaves, which are 4 or 5 feet long,” the same source noted.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Sometimes the trunk becomes so tall, they keel over under their own weight and appear to snake along the ground.”<\/p>\n

Also, “there seems to be some confusion over the nature and size of the trunk,” said Architectural Plants.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Pictures of the plant growing in the wild will show a petticoat of old leaves hanging down and obscuring the trunk. In cultivation, gardeners tend to remove these old leaves, displaying the trunk \u2014 sometimes 1 foot in diameter.”<\/p>\n

It added, “The relationship between the height of the trunk at the time the plant flowers is non-existent; it could flower at any time.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
