I just got some cuttings of Episcia a few weeks ago and I am getting blooms already. I put them in 2 inch pots but they take root so easy in the humid environment I could have just dropped them in the tank and they would have probably rooted.

Nice...haven't ever seen that bloom, or even that plant species before.

I have another rare plant in bloom today. I don't about the rest of you but I like the plants just as much as the frogs.
The plant is Amorphophallus ongsakulii. The whole bloom with stem is about 6" tall the leaves are about 3" tall.
this is the or one the smallest Amorphophallus species. Unique to the genus this one sends the flower and leaf up at the same time. I got this bulb last November so I don't know how it will do in the vivarium and I will try it when I get some offsets to experiment with.

That Amorphophallus is something else! Is the odor as strong as the larger species?
Cheers!
