Some plants are really very tough. Despite the amount of work done in our garden over the last few years, a few plants from its earlier incarnations still mange to pop up.
Last summer this one made it to flower - I (well my wife thinks!) that this is a "pine-apple lilly". I have nothing more to offer!
I am very behind with replies to comments - to many Christmas things to do, and places to be. But I will get there one day!
You can find more macro shots at Macro Monday 2 and I Heart Macro. SM

That's quite a beauty, I'd like to see the full plant some day.
It is indeed a beauty! I've never seen one like it!! I'll be interesting in learning what it is!!!
Beautiful photo!
How beautiful Stewart! Have a lovely day :)
Beautiful!!
This beautiful photo of a particular flower.
Very well photographed, compliment Stewart.
It is lovely!
Whatever the reason for getting it out of the old garden, I would certainly welcome it into the new. Unless, of course, it turns out to be highly invasive. But surely such a pretty thing would not misbehave!

Ditto. A very beautiful plant.
I think your wife is right; it does look like one I blogged some time ago - it is here Stewart for http://dragonfly47.blogspot.com.au/2012/01/fridays-flowers.html

Very unusual looking plant. Quite lovely though!
It's beautiful! I'll probably be taking some days off from blogging over Christmas. But I'll be around, reading blogs hopefully, but maybe not commenting so much til after Christmas.
very unique looking!
You don't see green flowers very often! Beautiful. Don't worry about being behind on comments....this is a busy season for everybody and after all blogging is a hobby not a second job (or a first one in my case ;>)!)
Beautiful photo! It's a gorgeous flower whatever it is.
Very unusual and beautiful!
Striking and unusual...great shot

Wow! That is gorgeous!
I have no idea what this flower is. But it radiates beauty and shine.
Whatever it is, it is certainly lovely! Glad it managed to survive.
