Default Re: anyone growing amorphophallus?

always great to see other amorph enthusiasts!!
several of my largest konjac have flower spikes now..some are on there way
so..guess i'll have weeks of stinky..LOL
i know of a guy in houston,TX plants his paeonfollius in the ground.. of course..thats subtropical..
also have an online bud in darwin,NT,australia.. tropical..and he has difficulty as mentioned steve ..with soil pathogens.. with amorphs.alocasia,colocasias.. so he
pots them up..
my titanums..are in various stages .. small one (4" corm) came out of dormancy
a month ago..and shot up fast with new petiole..other smaller one. (9"corm)
just finished vegetative growth..cut leaf back..and its forming 2 petiole buds..
will be interesting to see if actually sends up 2 leafs..
my 2 largest titanums..still in full leaf..no sign of going into dormancy..they are
9ft tall.. thank goodness i have a tall ceiling..yea.there in the living room..LOL
anxious to see how corm growth does on them..
