Amorphophallus bulbifer (Roxb.) Bl.
- Common Name:
- Family: Araceae Juss.
- Country of Origin: India
- Habitat:
- Description: One of a handful of bulbiferous aroids, in this case producing bulbils in the axil of the leaf.
- Culture: A.bulbifer definitely dislikes low humidity - the leaflets may partially desiccate; this seems to be more pronounced in low light. Also, in low light, the leafes become exceptionally dark green, with nicely contrasting pink margins. Such plants have to be moved to brighter light very gradually. In bright light, the leaves are bright green, with pinkish margins less pronounced.
