no pollen release Amorphophallus

---

Hi,

 

One of my Amorphophallus got into flower this year and it seems to be a form of Amorphophallus konjac.

The strange thing with this one is that the male flowers did not release any pollen. The whole flower is now

collapsing, but still no pollen is released. Has anybody ever seen this before?

 

Thanks.

 

Maarten

 

Here are some pictures of the flower and the leaves.
