         Amorphophallus titanum (Titan Arum, Bunga Bangkai or "Corpse flower") - No matter what you decide to call it (some even name theirs), there will be no mistake on what it is or ever detract attention from all who look upon its magnificent appearance. Best kept in a greenhouse environment unless you live in a tropical zone 10 conditions, these unrealistic plants just ooze oddity displaying the largest true flower in the world. While not in bloom and this will for a good length of time), you can enjoy its dark green unusual leafy lobed vegetation that should grow to 10 feet tall on a tree like stem. As a member of the aroid family, its not a difficult plant to grow and anyone with slightly green thumb should be able to enjoy this and anticipate its bloom. When you do get yours to bloom, you should alert the media as it could attract world wide attention (not to mention the neighbors as it emits its odorous perfume). That is an understatement of course as this flowers odor is described as a repulsive, "rotting-fish-with-burnt-sugar" scent to attract the plant's pollinators. Willing to put up with this a few diligent folks have had to cover their nose. You should have excellent results nurturing this giant aroid by growing it in bright indirect light with moist, rich in compost, well draining soil, high humidity and a regular supply of fertilizer. Get yours started today with a healthy young plant from Central Florida Farms! Hurry before they're gone!

                              $42.99 each young plant approx 5-8" tall


         Faustino's Giant Anthurium(Anthurium faustmirandae) Largest Leafed Anthurium! A newly discovered large specimen plant from inside Mexico. This beauty's leaves grow to be the largest round heart-shaped form of Anthuriums found today and are pretty fast growing. They are a hardy plant with stiff, leathery, green, heart-shaped leaves. The new growth has a reddish-gold tone and a brilliant gloss until it begins to reach its maximum size. The next size leaf should be almost double in size than the previous. They prefer watering cycle such as this: drench soil, allow to dry, drench again. The leaves grow to 3+ feet in diameter! Now that's a healthy sized plant leaf!

         Anthurium faustmirandae - Faustinos Giant Anthurium

                              $23.99 Each Faustino's Giant Anthurium starter Approx: 10-12"  w/ 4-6 leaves and growing!


         Yucca filamentosa 'Variegata' - Variegated Yucca - Watch out for this awesome contrasting plant! This easy to grow beauty will grow in sand or soil. It likes full sun to partial shade and is a steady growing plant to 3-4 feet tall and just as wide. The sharp pointed tips will pierce clothing and skin so place these out of the way. These plants make an excellent corner, center piece or border strip or could be placed as a protection plant near your lower home's windows. These are dangerous so be careful with the kids. When mature they will send up a very tall flower about 30 feet high from the midst of the plant. The flowers look like a tree from a distance and everyone wants to get a closer look.

                             $25.99 per plant approx: 8-12 inches diameter and well established.


         Bromeliad Imperialis - Alcantarea imperialis - Here is the Largest bromeliad known, a rare species of Bromeliad known to a few collectors as Imperialis! This plant gets to a monstrous size and is pretty fast growing. The plant will turn reddish as it matures and after a few years will bloom the largest of all bromeliads. This plant makes a spectacular center piece or more than one will make an excellent corner piece. They will send out pups after the plant is established. These are very easy to grow and cannot disappoint you unless you're impatient about its bloom. In the meantime, you'll enjoy a wonderful gigantic, Jurassic plant for your show.

                                  $19.99 per plant approx: 8-10" tall, well established.


         Chartreuse Philodendron Scandens 'Aureum'  - I found this awesome colored bright plant a few weeks ago and couldn't resist. The heart shaped leaves begin a creamy white and grow into bright yellow or blinding lime green. Even brighter than Xanthosoma Lime Zinger! I always loved how the variegated and green varieties get very large leaves while climbing trees and trellises, so this one will just blind anyone who dares to look. They will do well as an indoor houseplant as will the variegated pothos so you northern folks can easily have pleasure in this one as well. Outdoor growers in warmer climates (Zone 8b - 11) can experience this magnificent plant climb their tree trunks, walls, patio trellis or anywhere you decide. This also makes an excellent hanging basket plant. Protected under the tree's shade hammock from frost, it should retain its leaves to continue growing the next season. IF left unprotected, it will most likely lose its leaves but retain its structure to begin a fresh set the following season. Cant really go wrong here!

    Remusatia Pumila - An interesting plant! The leaves are contrasting darker outlining the veins with light green undersides. They grow to heights of about 10-12" tall. These epiphytic plants grow high in the trees clinging onto its host. They are extremely easy to grow and resemble a miniature alocasia species. They can be potted up and grown indoors or planted in the same manner as a stag horn fern or any other epiphyte. They require moist roots so keeping potted in a Canadian peat soil mix is recommended for easier care. They like bright shade to do their best. The propagate via small runners with a sticky bulbous all along the way that would normally cling to birds and tree mammals to be distributed throughout its habitat. Works well in a dish garden or other indoor arrangement. A small plant that will fit anywhere you place it. remusatia pumila , remusatia pumila , remusatia pumila , remusatia pumila ,
