These will often lose the growing point and can take a long time to grow a new one .
I doubt if they would grow to 10' in the bright light they like . Biggest I have ever seen was 6' or 2m .
fyi they can be propagated by root cuttings if you cannot wait for them to mature and set seed .

Jude=2C I'm surprised to hear that your Anchomanes has been dormant for a year. =3B Have you checked on the tuber? =3B Mine don't generally have a well defined dormancy and grow pretty much year-round if conditions are favorable.

I have one - I had a bunch=2C but they rotted from getting too cold and damp - but the one I have is about grapefruit sized (and the others were maybe twice that big) - Grows to about 10 feet tall. They definitely like it warmer - 70's and up. Mine has been dormant for at least one year now=2C and I am not sure why. I think if you google Anchomanes=2C you will find more info. =3B
Good luck! =3B
