From Tony Avent:
Someone just wanted to create a story. Anyone who follows corpse lilies
knows why so many flowered in 2016...more are being grown now. Since
1995, we've sold over 1000 of these and Louis Ricardello has sold as least
that many. The flowerings of Amorphophallus titanum has been increasing
dramatically since 2000...see chart below.
