Hello, all!!
One of the Amorphophallus titans at the
University of California at Davis Botanical Conservatory will be blooming in
the next day or so. Any aroid folks in California (or those who want to travel
here) are welcome to come and see it. The Conservatory will be open to the
public through the bloom.
Take a look at the following links:
