Dear all, I got a stunning photograph and a lovely message from Richard at the Royal Botanical Gardens at Kew this morning. What excitement if you have never seen one, here is the message.
Thank you all for your kind words. I thought you might like to see a picture of a titan arum - Amorphophallus titanum - came into bloom yesterday.I was lucky to catch it as the inflorescence only lasts a day.
