Re: Spectacular aroids - which ones?

Steve,
Helicodiceros muscivorus is a real crowd puller.
People stop, gasp, frown, point, recoil, faint, vomit and flee all
within about 60 seconds !
Even without its huge 'flowers' it is still a spectacular aroid. I
wouldn't be without it. ( 10,000 blowflies can't be wrong ! )
Cheers,
Rob.
