Tacca integrifolia ‘Select’
Incredible bat-like flowers with long whiskers. Tacca integrifolia is a super botanically intriguing oddball.
The most impressive of all the Taccas. This monster can reach a height of over 1.75 m tall. The white flower bracts with purple lines can measure 30 cm across. The most amazing part is the many whiskers which can be more than 1 m long. No wonder it’s called the devil’s whiskers. A must have for those who love the botanically intriguing and have a bit of space to overwinter indoors.
