Fellow Aroiders-
A new chapter of the IAS is beginning in the south centralUS. The “MidAmerica Chapter” hopes to attract IAS membersfrom Oklahoma, Arkansas, Texas, Louisiana and anyone else close enough to driveto our 3-4 meetings each year.
The inaugural meetingwill be November 21 in Oklahoma City, OK at theMyriad Botanical Gardens. This tropical conservatory containsan impressive collection of Palms, Cycads, Bromeliads, Gingers, Orchids, Euphorbias,Begonias, and – you guessed it – Aroids!
There is a new page on the IAS website for this chapter,which will be updated as more information becomes available. http://www.aroid.org/midamerica/
If you are in the area, please plan to attend this importantevent. It will be lots of fun and a great opportunity to meet others whoare interested in Aroids. We will take a tour, trade some plants among ourselves,and Steve Lucas might even share a report on the Aroid Show in Miami.
Please contact me if you plant to attend or with anyquestions you may have.
Thanks!
Zach DuFran
