Amorphophallus serrulatus Green Leaf Form Uruguay spreading underground to 6' wideThis Alan Galloway discovery from Central Thailand looks quite a bit like the diminutive A. obscurus in foliage, except for the heavily serrated leaf edges. The short inflorescence, which occurs after the leaf fades in fall (unlike the spring flowering A. obscurus), is composed of a greyish purple spathe, speckled inside and topped with a rigid pink limb small, but cute.
