Yay! After a long winters nap my Voodoo Lily is showing signs of life. Check it out :) Soon i will have an update of what the leaves look like. Such a cool plant
Very cool. Yes common names are confusing especially when many species use the same one. I have two little "Voodoo lilies" too but they are Amorphophallus konjac. They made little trees in the spring then died back. That's normal. I dug up the tubers and now have them inside in a dry place over wintering til next spring. Every year the tubbers get bigger. So if it gets too cold you can bring them insdie to be safe.
The voodoo lily that is in the video is actually hardy here... that is it's second year here :) i like not digging it up any more...lol.. I just bought some Konjac seeds... i hope they sprout ... it has been almost a month and no signs if life... i will wait longer... my fingers are crossed
LOL... Thanks Man!! I truely do like to grow things that other people don't. i respect the common things but they don't attract me like the unique.. I guess i just like to be different :) I need to try growing something hydroponic. looks like fun..
I have 3 of them growing in the back garden,mild poo pong -now sending up leaves-one of them appears to have a second leaf stem growing-great looking mottled leaf pity its so short lived
A friend from Flickr sent them to me. I could ask him if he's got extras or sells them or what? One of my bulbs is growing a long piece. I don't know if it's making a new one. I heard they divide on their own, but it will probably be a long time before I have another one since they're just babies. I've seen them on Ebay for a decent price. Might want to try that too.
i will certainly try ebay again... thats where i found the seeds... i hear that the success rate with fresh seeds is almost 100%... now the question is... are the seeds i got fresh...lol...
These are hardy to zone 5 or 6 i believe, Yes this one was overwintered in the ground. It prefers to not be wet over winter... if it's too wet you will get some rot.
Very beautiful flower can't for mine plants to flower one day

Good luck with the konjacs. I got mine as tiny bulbs.
I have a sauromatum venosum indian giant thats about to bloom, its the king size version of this one.
did you get them online? and if so do you remember where from... i might like to try tiny bulbs instead

The voodoo Lily i have has leaves does that mean it wont flower?
So did you leave the bulbs in the ground over winter? And if that’s the case can they tolerate a wet winter?

What's use roots
A plant that smells like shit, now there is something new. Definitely has some cool colors.
What's use
Isn't the latin for voodoo lily Amorphophalus konjac ?
Many Amorphs are called voodoo lily... not just konjac.
