Amorphophallus Konjac bloom

Hey everyone!

Here's my little a. Konjac bloom. It smells awful I may have underestimated it.

Hope they're clear, I took them with my itouch.

I believe it's a little bloom...
Base to tip 32.25"
Flower 19"
Width 6"
 
I wish I could but we still have snow! My mom put it outside on a warm day because it stunk so much. Right now it's on the basement steps. Shame it couldn't wait to flower so I could put it outside.
 
Apparently the dogs like it .. LOL!

Mine has yet to bloom. Quite okay with that however, as I grow it more for the foliage.
 
I keep mine outside year-round on my porch which freezes most nights during the winter. It is marginal in any hardiness zones below 7b, where I am. Mine flowered last year and i'm hoping for another this year. yours is more tightly curled around than mine was. I actually like yours a lot better. It has a more regal look to it.
 
Beautiful!! Lmao at the dogs sniffing at it! I have heard the smell can be "breath taking" haha! I can't wait for mine to grow, smell or no smell - they're amazing plants!
