There is one presently blooming or one that just bloomed bloomed at the U. of Conn., write to Matthew Opel--- >Matthew.Opel@huskeymail.uconn.edu< Check the site at --- >http://www.ucon.edu< There is one blooming nearer to you at Disney`s Animal Kingdom in Orlando, I have deleted the letters concerning this one, so hopefully someone else will give you the name and address of the person to contact there. I so hope you get good pollen, maybe phone Disney in the morning, it may be worth the drive to get fresh or chilled pollen. Where does your plant originate, seed ex: Jim Symon and Dewey Fisk??? Good Luck, Julius >Hello all, would like to let anyone who is interested know that our Amorphophallus titanum here at the Atlanta Botanical Garden is due to bloom soon, probably in the next week or so. The tuber weighed in at about 80 lbs. when we repotted it at the end of June so hopefully it will be a big one. Will keep everyone posted as I know more. If anyone knows of any others blooming around now I would like to obtain some pollen.Come visit us. David Ruland
