From my research a while ago "obake" means "ghost" or "changing" or something like that, and describes multicolored inflorescences that change in color. What I'm really hoping to find someday is an obake that has Michael Byunhttp://instagram.com/phytophilenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2481706068105246695.post-41685653408626969772015-03-07T15:06:31.701-08:002015-03-07T15:06:31.701-08:00I think the pink veins are very pretty.I think the pink veins are very pretty.Jeanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02270303640902731044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2481706068105246695.post-20200186044576057182015-03-06T08:00:42.782-08:002015-03-06T08:00:42.782-08:00TL:

A few of my plants have definitely produced berries even though I've never seen them shed pollen. Now, never appearing to be <i>receiving</i> pollen, that's a problem. <br /><br />Your plant sounds pretty similar to mine, mr_subjunctivehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14113199755474482747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2481706068105246695.post-62024307210610482362015-03-06T06:27:04.681-08:002015-03-06T06:27:04.681-08:00I'm loving the spathe color, too.

It looks pretty much like it does on their website. New flowers have white spadixes and spathes, then the spadix turns pink and after that the spathe starts developing pink veins. Green usually doesn't start appearing before the flower's been around for a month or two though but I suppose that might TLnoreply@blogger.com
