Biggest May Flower

Dr S. Ramesh Babu (born on 12th February 1957) from Karnataka, India planted a single May Flower (Scadoxus Multiflourus) in June 2003 in his Tatanagar residential garden and has been nurturing it with adequate water and natural manure only, which keeps multiplying every year, each bulb giving out a single May Flower just once a year in the first week of May, of the normal size of 4-6 inch in diameter. However, in 2012, 12 May Flowers started blooming between 1 - 4 May, out of which, 3 flowers grew to more than 9 inches in diameter, and the largest May Flower was measured with an amazing spherical diameter of little over 1 foot.
