Amorphophallus vogelianus AGA-1873-02

Amorphophallus vogelianus is a voodoo lily native to the Chiang Dao region of Northern Thailand which closely resembles two other Thai species, Amorphophallus sizemoreae and Amorphophallus saururus. The key difference is the vertical tuber of Amorphophallus vogelianus and the slightly more obtuse leaf tip. The light pink stalk is topped by a velvety black green leaf with a reddish margin. The white spathe is home to a long white spadix that greatly exceeds the spathe. Amorphophallus vogelianus is named after Art Vogel, who was the greenhouse manager of the amorphophallus collection at the University of Leiden.
