One of our Amorphophallus titanum's is about ready to bloom! I thought it would be fun to show the progression of the flower bud. Although I hardly call it a "Bud"; it is already pretty big (I would say it is currently already 3.5 feet tall)!
The corm when we dug it out of it's old pot. We noticed it was starting to sprout again, and decided to repot it, as it was starting to outgrow it's old pot. We estimated that the corm weighed about 100 to 150 lbs! The photo was taken on May 8th 2013:
Almost two weeks later, after we repotted it, the bud had grown considerably. At this point we concluded it was going to be a flower bud, rather than a new leaf! The photo was taken May 21st:
