Amorphophallus muelleri

Amorphophallus muelleri

Description:

Amorphophallus muelleri is a species native to W. Thailand, India (Andaman Islands), and Indonesia (Sumatra, Java, Timor, Sulawesi). Amorphophallus is a genus of tuberous plants in the Araceae family. They are grown by devoted collectors for the beauty of their single compound pinnate leaves, which give them a palm like look, very exotic. A few are brave enough to confess they find the bad smelling flower one of Nature's wonders.

Habitat:

Bengkulu Forest

So beautiful. How big is this flower?

Moderator should allow at least one picture of this flower with the human, so that we can see (compare) the true size of this flower...

HI Sofian, Very nice spotting. Welcome to Project Noah. Project Noah does not encourage photos of humans and it would be appreciated if you could crop the photos to show only the flower. Thanks very much.

I suggest you read the FAQ (http://www.projectnoah.org/faq) to learn the rules of the site.Looking forward to more spottings from your part of the world.
