🗿 The biggest flower in the world - Amorphophallus. The name speaks for itself.

After meeting Sausage Tree and Clitoria, are you ready for the Amorphophallus? Now you have seen everything!

• 💀 Common names of this exceptional plant: Voodoo lily, Devils tongue, Snake Palm, Elephant Foot Yam, Corpse flower.
• 💀 Why Corpse flower? Because of the smell that the flower omits, which is only present for a few hours after the flower opens - to attract pollinator flies!
• 💀 Amorphophallus is the largest flower in the world and one of the most exotic bizarre flowers. Amorphophallus titanum is known for its massive size, its flower can reach heights of over 10 feet and blooms only once every few years.
• 💀 This perennial exotic Asian plant grows a single, elongated center called a corm (that is actually edible) and a single large leaf that wraps around it.
• 💀 The seed stalk is very pretty with the seeds changing colors from green to red. During this time the tuber will not produce a leaf. After the flower and seed stalk dies away, a giant single leaf grows from the tuber.
• 💀 The single leaf dormant in winter, then in spring the plant shoots out this fantastic flower again.
• 💀 It is relatively cold hardy tropical and can survive cooler winters during dormancy.
• 💀 Can be easily grown in a pot as a houseplant.
