This has just come into bloom in Gina's garden and we don't know what it is yet, any ideas?

Gina, I think this might be a Hippeastrum "Apple Blossom" which are large funnel shaped flowers and they are carried on strong, leafless hollow stems above at least four mid to deep green strap-shaped leaves, about 60cm long (24in) long. These are among the boldest flowering greenhouse or pot plants.

Might be that Smiley

Thanks for that! I just found it in my book too! Gayleywaley said it could be that, but wasn't to sure.
It has three flowers coming of one stem now and it is beautiful  Smiley

Could it be a variation of hibiscus ? My nan bought me a gorgeous coloured one this weekend.
