Description:
Sauromatum venosum is a tropical-looking aroid native to Asia and Africa, notable for its peculiar inflorescence with violet and yellow patterning. This plant is thermogenic, generating its own heat, and emits a putrid odor to attract pollinators. It features a giant hand-shaped leaf that emerges after flowering and forms a colony over time. The plant is cultivated as an ornamental and thrives in forest and riparian meadow environments.
