Comments (4)Will be interesting to see what happens. You might end up with 2 tubers at the end of the growing season.

Comments (0)I have Amorphophallus konjac in Ohio 5b/6a and it grows and lives and is very strange. When I first got the plant it said to treat the plant like a succulent and that it will rot in wet or rich soils. But I read more that they like rich soils and need constant moisture during the summer? I assume it is bad to have them wet during the dormant winter, so I planted them in rather poor soil near the east side of the house to hopefully stay dry and only get morning sun. The listed zone seems to vary a lot, as well as the listed scientific name. So how is the best way to grow this cool plant in Ohio? The plants seems to have 3 morphs... 1. juvenile form with one stalk and one "hand" leaf at the top. 2. adult form with thick stalk and a "bunch" of leaves held at the top. Sometimes a big maroon stinky flower forms if it is a big stalk. 3. weird alien very dark maroon sexy tentacle that opens up into a weird dark flower stalk, then dies quickly. .... sometimes dormant for months or all year? sometimes flower and stalk in the same year? What the heck is this plant doing so I can understand it better?...See Morelarry_b
