Re: [Aroid-l] Spring STINKS!

From: "Christopher Rogers" <crogers at ecoanalysts.com> on 2009.04.27 at 17:03:14(19289) A fortnight ago I had in bloom: Three konjaks, Two Helicodiceros muscivorus 4 Arum palestinum (both the foetid and the rotten fruit ecotypes) 6 Arum italicum 4 Arum dioscorides On Easter morning I had around twenty Typhonium roxburghii in full glory. Right now I am in anticipation of my very first Synandrospadix vermitoxus inflorescence. I have no idea about its odor, foul or fair. I love spring. D.

Lucky you!!! Of all mine in the ground, the only ones up so far are the Dracunculus vulgaris. I must have one of the "wimpy sissy" clones. It only smells faintly - kind of like a dead cat in the next-door to the next-door neighbor's yard.

Upon getting home from work yesterday afternoon, as soon as I opened the car door, this awful putrid smell hit me......and I knew exactly what it was. In the garden the following were in full bloom: 11 Amorphophallus konjac 1 Amorphophallus dunnii 9 Helicodiceros muscivorus 4 Dracunculus vulgaris 6 various Arum species The scent of the tall bearded Iris never had a chance of being noticed -- Spring STINKS!
