Voodoo Lily

Amorphophallus konjac. This voodoo lily is about 4 years old. It first bloomed for me the 2nd year and every year since. It is in bloom right now, and my husband describes its' fragrance as 'dead animal'.

What a fabulous show. The flower will die back completely pretty quickly, and the leaves emerge in late June even more showy and unique than the flower. This is one of the plants I bought from Tony Avent that is thriving in my yard. I love it and always look forward to it!
