Hi Again

Just remembered this blog

http://kew.org/news/kew-blogs/…

I believe this is all 1 clone, as they told me they have few if any seed when I asked. Those pots are very heavy, and with the full grown leaves maybe 2' across.

You can find other photos with Google, using either spelling.

Does anybody have experience growing this plant from seed?   I would like to purchase a bulb or plant but am having no luck locating either.  Finding seeds seems difficult too but not impossible. However, I wonder if it's difficult to get the seeds to germinate.

Thanks very much,
