Amorphophallus tinekeae

A Bornean Amorphophallus with no georeferenced wild records, so its habitat is inferred from the genus and a fallback climate point in the hills of central-west Borneo. That climate is hot, saturated and rainy all year. Grow it like other everwet Bornean Amorphophallus: warm, humid, in free-draining humus, with dormancy that follows the plant rather than the calendar.

Presumed rainforest understory or forest edge on well-drained soil, as is usual for Bornean Amorphophallus; species-specific habitat data are lacking.

Unknown; the fallback climate point is at about 430 m.
