Titan
Arum, also known as Corpse Flower (Amorphophallus titanum) RARE -
to 8' or higher, This extremely rare plant produces one of
the largest flowers of any plant in the world. When it reaches
blooming size, it sends up a flower spike that reaches five feet tall
or more and up to three feet across over the course of several weeks.
The flower's growth rate is so fast that it can be measured in feet
over a few days. This plant is so rare in cultivation that
there are never more than a few in bloom at any one time anywhere in
the world and when one does begin to bloom, it's an event that is
celebrated with much fanfare. Gardeners and plant enthusiasts
alike line up to get a glimpse of this rare beauty in bloom and often
travel many miles just to see this plant curiosity. The plant
grows from an underground corm that can grow to weigh over 50 pounds
over the course of many years. It produces a leaf petiole that
holds a palmate cluster of leaves atop its bare stem. One to
two leaf stems emerge at a time. This is the Holy Grail
of plants. A live plant in a 3" pot in a
six-inch pot - $95 each or 3 for $270.75 -
You save $14.25!
