That's just plastic plants to look impressive.

Growth will be bushy then.

Piper or Capsicum? :seeya:

Since we can only use Anglicized names, let us see what the OED has to say about chi(l)i:

Müller's whopper is just a regular-sized amorphophallus... If you want next-level whoppers: That's Amorphophallus titanum ☺️

If all goes well, that is... It takes a few years before the plants begins flowering. I'll be happy if I can taste a bulb in a year or so ☺️

Early March, I received some random mail package from Indonesia . It contained mostly palm seeds but also seeds of the aroid Amorphophallus muelleri (Müller's unsightly penis 🤡). I have absolutely no experience with Amorphophallus species. Seeds had begun to germinate in transit and seedlings...

That's right, Solanum schizandrum! At least one species that's doing well 😑 New growth shows spines on stems as well as leaves.

I hope not, because even as non-participant this game was/is fun to watch.

That's its most distinctive characteristic 👍 Not always easy to find (because they will sell anything as Diente de perro and then blame circumstances for forgetting to use their glasses). I haven't seen it being offered on the local market in a while...

The list still fits on my screen, no need to scroll... don't you feel uncomfortable about that?

I hope this variety shows its teeth this year 😎
