Amorphophallus Titanum..?

Recommended Posts

Hey everyone :)

Ive known about this amazing stinky flower for awhile, googled today for a time filler...apparently seeds and seedlings can be brought from a nursery in qld?

Not sure if id seriously consider an attempt to grow this...for some reason it just seems to fanciful and ive classified it as mere wishful thinking :)

It just seems to unique and i would assume too complex to feasibly grow?

$45 aint bad for a seedling at all so it sorta makes me think it must be an unreasonable gimmick? (This is in no way an attack or suspicion on the nursery...just thoughts)...

Any opinions? Or experience?...

Seems like a disgustingly awesome plant to attempt to cultivate! :D

EDIT: oops typed the price wrong... $45 not $25, still more than reasonable for a unique plant..

Don't let the Internet stress you over it. They aren't hard at all to grow in the subtropics. They die back in the dry season in the wild so they don't mind a winter dormancy. I'd give it a go if I were you... I did

Ah just noticed this sorry gunfighter :)

Hmmm fascinating :) i may do :)

Do you still grow yours? Did it ever flower? If so, does it stink your whole yard out or is it a more subtle stink

Sorry for the late reply :)
