| How about something off the wall. (Amorphophallus titanum). Corpse flower Eric |

| Eric, yes it is an Amorphophallus aka VOODOO LILY, but not var. titanum(the largest flower in the world, and stinkiest). This one is "A. konjac" a bit smaller and grows a bit different. I was going to post another photo to help with ID. A. konjac flower found on internet: Leaf from PDN: Good job Eric!! Kt |
|
| Wow...right off the wall....He's good-He's good! |
