RE: [Aroid-l] recent Amorphophallus blooms

We have often walked out of the house this time of year and thought we had a gas leak only to find a flower open.

Actually that vine is just a Morning Glory gone to seed – nothing too exotic there! At my school, A. bulbifer is one of the faculty’s favorite corpse flowers – they tend to like its standard “prettiness” and lack of vile odor. I like it too, but I do appreciate the stinky ones!Cheers,C.J.On 06/21/2007 09:12, "Susan B" wrote: Great photos, CJ. Bulbifer is one of my favorites, too.There is a group photo of konjacs with an odd looking plant to the right of it- perhaps a vine? What is that?thanks!Susan The fish are biting.
