Hi Wijaya, you have a nice plant. Do you have the picture of its stem ot leaf? How big is the flower?

Thanks!

@marvin: the name is Amorphophallus enpranii
@bifurcatum: it is a small flower, it had been blooming several times already, the picture below is photo archieve from back at 2007 and 2008. I still have them but in leaf stage.

Wait.... I'm confused. When they have leaves they don't look like amorphorphallus at all. I always thought they were only one giant stinky flower. Does they switch between leaf and flower stage??

Aaron, amorphophallus won't produce leaf and flower at the same time.
Leaf > Dormant > Flower

.....And the cycle continue over the years.
