To visualize the latin meaning of Amorphophallus, take a look at the last

Susan,
Yes, it was a natural occurance. I did put a dirt clod between the 2
appendages
just so it would show up in the photo as 2 distinct appendages.

OK, another question- how rare is this occurrence? Another member mailed me
a photo of A. henryi doing the same thing.
I wonder what causes this- I've seen usual heading in cactus and succulents,
but that isn't the flowering part...

Maybe we could get an "unusual inflorescences" page attached to the
Amorphophallus pages on the IAS site.
I wonder if you could/will get two seed heads!

I have in my files a photo of a forked Caladium spadix.

A spadix is just a very tightly-packed flower spike. So then the question is, how often do, say, mullein or foxglove spikes branch?
