I have a large tuber of Amorphophallus prainii and it flowered wonderfully
in October [southern hemisphere] filling the house with the stench of
propane gas as it wafted its perfume in from where it grows in front of the
verandah. A month later, now it has put up it's leaf shoot with leaf
unfurling, however alongside is another flower from the same tuber. Is this
usual, for some reason I had the impression to expect only one flower per
tuber for each season.
