Check out Amorphophallus konjac - Blooming in South Florida

My first, and possibly second post never made it, so here it goes again.
I thought I'd share this. I grew this from a garlic clove sized tuber 1 1/2
years ago to a large grapefruit sized flowering tuber you see pictured. It
stands about 22 inches tall (56 cm).
I was told that A. konjac did not do well in South Florida. Well this one did
;-) It is a "John Riordan" clone I got from Dewey Fisk for joining the
International Aroid Society.
