Typhonodorum lindleyanum is an aquatic Araceae
native to Madagasca with sagittate leaves
It grows to 2 or 3 meters tall in silty, basaltic, slightly acidic water
The 'flower' is a large spathe and spadix
(white "like a nun's habit")
the edible seeds are about 1.5 cm long and a rich brown colour.
We hope to have more photographs and some botanical data soon.
