Juvinal foliage has very little to make an ID with... and to be sure... you have to wait for an inflorescence.... Sorry... In the meantime.... enjoy the plant - it is very healthy!

Amorphophallus? Perhaps a Dracunculus? Or one of those pod things that Alien Invader wannabes keep sending us?

From: "Wilbert Hetterscheid" hetter at worldonline.nl> on 2001.06.28 at 15:59:30(6910) My guess would be a Dracunculus. A "spontaneous" Amorphophallus would not likely be a species with flowers and leaves at the same time. POSSIBLY a Typhonium venosum, but again, flowering apart from the leaf.
