I also grow Pseudodracontium harmanii 'Hot Legs', which recent molecular evidence has shown that the Genus Pseudodracontium is firmly seated in the middle of Amorphophallus genetically, so they are soon to be lumped into Amorphophallus. They are very easy to grow as potted plants, and have "interesting" flowers. Anyone else grow these so called Voodoo Lilies?
This is a mature A ongsakulii blooming in a 4 inch pot, at Plant Delights.

We are growing a couple of varieties...once you have them you always have them. They disappear and then suddenly show up again...
