Does anyone grow species in the genus Dracontium. I have a D. giganteum which reached about 4 meters (13 ft.) last season and still hasn,t flowered.
Just how big have they got to get before they will flower ?. Does anyone know which part of South America it comes from ?. There is very little information available
on any of this genus. The pic is of one of last years babies. It is a prolific producer of new plants as small bulbs grow from the main tuber. Bob.
