First Titan Spike
Last month, in Hot and Wet for Betty’s Berries, I talked about planting Amorphophallus titanum seeds. It’s been about five weeks, but the first one has finally broken ground and is growing fast. Very exciting.

Congratulations on your titanette! Titanling? Titanicule? Anyway, a titanic achievement.
Wowie!!! Exciting is right!! I always visit the one at the Huntington Botanical Gardens when it’s in Pepe La Pew season! I have always been in awe of this Dr. Seuss looking plant :)I met a man from Java who told me that they grow all over the jungle over there and
when it is their time to bloom the smell is so intense as can be imagined!La Pew!!I have been following this post and I am so stoked to see this
progress!Thanks so much for sharing & I hope you will
continue to share till it blooms & stinks!lol :D
P.S.Buddy can you spare a seed? ;)
That’s incredible. Congrats! How much fun is that! I’d love to have a specimen to grow on in the greenhouse and hopefully see bloom one day. We can dream right.
