If so you have an Amorph. konjac >(disappointingly). >A far too familiar case of incorrect plant ID I'm sorry to say. > I know it came from Victoria..... so it is probably what you are talking about. However..... why does this form die down far earlier than the other A. konjac that I have? Someone in Queensland told me that theirs has done the same thing as mine....and I think they mentioned Collector's Corner. Are there specific clones of A. konjac that die down before others? I would say we're talking about a month before by the look of it too. There are no signs of even a little yellowing on the A. konjac that I got from an Aroid collector (from this list) here in Canberra, so I would have thought it was at least something slightly different?
