    Here's another plant the wife brought in recently.

    I've no idea what it is, and have never seen one before. It has an interesting leaf structure.

    Some of things I'd like to know.
    1) What is it?
    2) How big will it get it I keep re potting it?
    3) Can it survive a UK winter if I plant it in my garden?

    Cheers guys

    Red Anthurium. It grows very slowly, if you pot on every couple of years it still won't get much bigger. It is a houseplant so won't survive outside.

    Looks like a Calla Lily to me.

    It's Anthurium. Mine is about 15 years old, and apart from the flowers it had when I bought it, it has never flowered again. I live in hope :smile:
