Titan VanCoug bloomed for a second time Aug. 16, 2022.
Titan VanCoug was successfully pollinated during its second bloom. To help fruit grow, remnants of the bloom were trimmed away to expose the plant’s fruit-producing spadix. Caretakers prevented mold growth on the spadix by treating it with a vinegar mixture. Each “berry” produces two seeds. Seeds have been harvested and will be shared with other universities and conservatories.
