The sister plant of the Titan arum - Amorphophallus konjac, belongs to the lizard tail family and, with its extraordinary, carrion-scented flower that attracts insects, represents an absolute botanical rarity. In spring, the plants sprout from an underground tuber. First, the inflorescence forms - once the plant reaches the appropriate age - followed by the leaf structures appearing throughout the rest of the year. However, the inflorescences are significantly smaller than those of the sister plant Titan arum (Amorphophallus titanum). Amorphophallus konjac is native from Asia to tropical Africa and often grows in rainforests, in moist areas along streams, or in meadows. Commercial nutrient-rich potting soil with a neutral to slightly acidic pH, mixed with some perlite for better drainage, is suitable as a substrate. Overwintering should preferably be frost-free in a cold greenhouse. For this, the tubers can be cultivated either cool, dry, and dark or kept slightly moist in the substrate.

M = You will receive one medium tuber/young plant (10-15cm) each.
