Amorphophallus titanum

Myke,
The most important thing is to keep it dry during dormancy.
Otherwise, the things seem to like heat, light and quite a bit of fertilizer.
Cooler temperatures, poor drainage and wet are the main things to keep it away from.
The International Aroid Society has more information on general Amorphophallus culture at
http://aroid.org/genera/amorphophallus/…
There's also a culture sheet at http://aroid.org/genera/amorphophallus/…
Best of luck,
--Albert

I have bought a few bulbs of Amorphophallus titanum on eBay and would
appreciate guidance on keeping these healthy, particularly when they are in
their dormant phase.
Thanks in anticipation
