Amorphophallus Kiushianus “S”

Amorphophallus kiushianus occurs naturally in the temperate regions of Japan, China and Taiwan. This makes it relatively easier to keep the plant in Europe than related species. These voodoo lilies also have a manageable size that can later grow to a maximum of one meter. Amorphophallus kiushianus grows in periods through an underground tuber. Some years the plant grows by creating a leaf that it loses again at the end of the season. The impressive flower is produced after a number of cycles. This spreads a scent of decaying meat, to attract flies and other insects. Amorphophallus kiushianus produces orange-red berries after flowering, even if the plant is not pollinated.
