All four of our Devil's Tongue babies are growing. I am very excited. 😊
I love these odd plants.
They're all foliage in the summer but, in the early spring, they produce a single giant dark red flower that smells like death. (It's related to the corpse flower.)
With our luck, they'll all flower next January and stink up the house. 😄

The corpse flower, the largest unbranched influorescence in the world. Amorphophallus titanum, native to Sumatra, its massive flower smells like a dead body when it blooms, it only blooms for 24 to 36 hours every 4 to 7 years. Its first bloom can take over 10 years!

I overwinter some of my outdoor plants in my messy garage. There's about a week left before I can safely move them outside. My #Amorphophallus konjac decided to #flower so now my messy garage smells like hot, bloated roadkill.
