This plant can for sure have a bulb neck that is 30 cm long as you
cant see the bulb at all. Leaves length depends on light, nutrients
and water availability so I guess this specimen growing in sand on
sunny sea-shore never will have leaves of 2 m length. There are also
many different cultivars of C.asiaticum that shows a big difference in
general size, leaf shape and colour.
