Amorphophallus borneensis - Seedling - 2" Pot

This is a rare species of "tropical" corpse flower. Although smaller than the titan, this one still has large, spectacular, highly colorful flowers that are bound to amaze anyone lucky enough to see it in bloom. Am. borneensis, in my opinion, also has one of the most beautiful petioles of any corpse flower, coming in a massive variety of ornate, contrasting colors.

As seedlings, they will frequently send up new leaves over the first 1-2 years and should go dormant after 2+ years. During growth, keep them damp and give medium light. They should require repotting in 8-12 months (once the tuber starts pushing out on the sides of the pot).

HIGHLY LIMITED

NOTE: Tropical Amorphophallus tend to sulk from shipping but typically recover within 24 hours after unpacking and putting them back into the light. Do not be worried if your plant arrives looking a little sad; it will quickly bounce back!
