Re: [aroid-l] Mr Stinky Titanwatch - moved



Is the pot we see Mr. Stinky in his year round home, or is it just for display while stinking?  Although it is quite a large pot, I was wondering if it is large enough to support the huge plant in its growth phase. 
Also, after following his progress for years, many of us feel like we know him personally.  Would it be disrespectful to dispense with the formality of referring to him by his last name?

What is Mr. Stinkys' first name?

Mr. Stinky, Amorphophallus titanum, has moved just out of web-cam range to a safe location. It appears at this time that the pollination was successful, though with these plants I'm always cautious about stating anything for sure. I'm not sure if I can get the web-cam repositioned so viewers can see the inflorescence develop into a fruiting specimen. I'll let you know if I can.
