Konjac is a common name of the East and Southeast Asian plant Amorphophallus konjac, which has an edible corm (bulbo-tuber). It is also known as konjaku, konnyaku potato, devil's tongue, voodoo lily, snake palm, or elephant yam (though this name is also used for A. paeoniifolius). It is native to Yunnan in China and cultivated in warm subtropical to tropical East and Southeast Asia, from Japan and China south to Indonesia (USDA hardiness zone 6-11). It is a perennial plant, growing from a large corm up to 25 cm in diameter. The single leaf is up to 1.3 m across, bipinnate, and divided into numerous leaflets. The flowers are produced on a spathe enclosed by a dark purple spadix up to 55 cm long. The food made from the corm of this plant is widely known in English by its Japanese name, konnyaku (yam cake), being cooked and consumed primarily in Japan and Korea. The two basic types of cake are white and black. Noodles made from konnyaku are called shirataki. The corm of the konjac is often colloquially referred to as a yam, though it is not related to tubers of the family Dioscoreaceae. 7686

Now this plant is finally blooming and it started emitting the characteristic odor of rotting meat to attract flies. An unpleasant atmosphere invades the section of the garden where it is placed but it is still a very much appreciated moment because of its strange form and wonderful colour.

The Pod is 17 inches tall now.
There's a bunch more popping up.
The putrefied stink of death surrounds it.
OK, here's some important information.
No# 1 says if you know what you're doing
and can harvest the tuber by avoiding
the Big Itchy, the bulb, which weighs
about 10-12 kilos, is real yummy ;-)-

A large one (taller than me) and her progeny, on the verge of smelling like corpses in a garbage dump. At that moment they will be escorted from the house.
Instead of pasta I used konjack noodles for this dish. A lot less calories and they taste good so it's a win-win situation. Add some lobster, broccolini and peas and it a wonderful dish.

Plants which flowered, but are not busy fructifying, emit a leaf in summer. It has the form of a palm stem bearing numerous leaflets. From larger rhizomes more than one leaf may emerge and large leaves sometimes ramificate, as shown in the images below. Plants which did not flower in spring emit their leaf earlier to gain as much strength as possible and enlarge their rhizomes.
This year the spathe is unfolding very slowly due to the relatively cool weather. It is growing in front of a group of Hosta plants in mid-shade.

A selfie Sunday with my 5 foot tall blooming Amorphophallus Rivieri (Voodoo Lily) The last one to bloom this year. Left this one in the cooler basement, since the last one stunk up my whole house. This is the first time in a couple of years that I got a “stinky” bloom
A lighting/lens test I did a while back when I first acquired the Kodak Ektar 203mm lens. I just got around to processing this film last night (4x5 Kodak Tmax 100, expired in 2015, processed in BER49).
Man those Ektar lenses are sharp.

El día fue largo, por la mañana visitamos el castillo de Himeji, a una hora en tren desde Kioto y por la tarde nos adentramos en el barrio de Gion, donde paseamos un buen rato descubriendo rincones encantadores, canales y casas de estilo tradicional. La idea era recorrer la multitud de tiendas de la calle principal, Shijo Dori, para hacer tiempo a que cayera el sol y así con un poco de suerte cruzarnos con alguna maiko o alguna geisha camino de su trabajo en las casas de té, pero había tanta gente por las calles que era bastante improbable verlas.
Camino hacia Pontocho, una zona al otro lado del río plagada de restaurantes, dimos de casualidad con el "Issen Yoshoku" un restaurante muy curioso donde sólo sirven un plato, especial de la casa. Estaba tan repleto de gente que incluso se hacía cola para entrar.
Tuvimos suerte y mientras nos entreteníamos unos minutos observando como preparaban el famoso plato que da nombre al restaurante en la cocina abierta a la calle, nos dieron mesa dentro.
El plato es muy parecido al famoso okonomiyaki, pero con carne de vaca, cebolla, jengibre, camarones secos, huevo, masa de tempura, pescado a la plancha, jalea konjac, bonito seco y harina para hacer la masa de la torta que lo envuelve todo. La verdad es que estaba buenísimo y no necesitabas pedir más comida por que sólo con ese plato ya te quedabas bien satisfecho. A pesar de ello, pedimos un cucurucho de helado de té matcha, muy típico en Japón y con un color verde precioso, pero con un sabor muy diferente a nada que hubiéramos probado antes.
La decoración del local era de lo más divertida, acompañando a los comensales en algunas de las mesas había maniquíes ataviados con kimonos y en las paredes casi no quedaban huecos donde meter ni un detalle más, era muy entretenido observar cada rincón; estampas antiguas de todos los personajes de comics o dibujos animados japoneses de todos los tiempos, pero también clásicos de otras partes del mundo y además tablillas con dichos populares (imagino, porque no sé japonés), que entendía por los dibujos que podían ser bastante picantes... Incluso una colección de estatuillas de simpáticos penes con caras, algo kitsch, pero en cualquier caso curiosas.
