Amorphophallus mossambicensis is a little known species from, you guessed it, Mozambique where voodoo lily has a whole different meaning. This particular accession, which hails from Inhajange in southeastern Mozambique, has 2' tall stems of green with light purple patterns near the base. The flowers resemble Amorphophallus henryi (a purple, dust-ruffled, toilet seat-like spathe and purple spadix with a smell to match) on a slightly taller stalk. How can you resist?
