Just to show how tough Amorphophallus paeoniifolius can be, we has flooding over Easter and some of the "natural" amorph areas went under. Was only able to get back to those yesterday and check how they went. From the flood debris you could see some were about 2 metres under water. It only lasted like that for a few days but the ground has been totally saturated under them for a lot longer. There hasn't been much follow up rain so many of them still have leaves coated with silt. Because it's late in the season they might decide they've had enough.
