No I've never grown it, I just find it interesting. Hopefully the pollination worked and they get some fertile seeds.

amorphs are truely facinating..
even before musical/movie "little shop of horrors".. i saw one..
i think it was a titanum.. in a friends greenhouse..when i was in
college.. 2 million yrs ago..LOL it was in bloom.. was a smaller
flower..prob 5' tall.. but i thought wow..i got to have one of those
some day..
i know ive been bit by the amorph bug.. i find my konjacs great fun..
and i know the titanum will be more challenging..but..thats what
gardening is about.. for me it is.. testing my skills,finding what a
particular plant needs to excel..
thanks again
