Re: [Aroid-l] Temperature requierements for Helicodiceros
|
From: Sheldon Hatheway <sfhatheway at yahoo.com> on 2010.01.30 at 20:07:21
Hi,
I live in Canby, OR, USA (zone 7 something). Our normal winter temperatures go below freezing and sometimes into the teens and somewhat rarely down into the single digits, all with a great deal of rain. I have grown D. vulgaris for over 20 years outside with no protection at a depth of about 4"-6". I was surprised at how well it grew. One winter the temperature fell to just above zero F. for about a week. I don't know if this is unusual or not because it's the only one I've ever grown. It emerges in March-April, flowers in June-July and goes dormant in October-November.

=0A=0A=0A =0A =0A=0A=0A Hello, =0A =0A I live in zone 7a, so I don't risk leaving =0ADracunculus vulgaris (which has similar requirements as Helicodiceros =0Amuscivorus), =0A so I cultivate it at home. It is dormant through =0Aall the summer and autumn, it wakes up in December, blooms in February and soon =0Aafter it goes dormant again. Here's my page: =0A =0A =0A Marek =0A =0A ----- Original Message ----- =0A =0A =0A Sent: Friday, January 29, 2010 2:57 =0A AM =0A Subject: Re: [Aroid-l] Temperature =0A requierements for Helicodiceros =0A
=0A =0A =0A =0A Bernhard,
I am certainly no expert when it comes to =0A this plant, but I do have a few in pots, so I will share what I =0A know! Here in Tennessee, USA, they start growing in December and =0A die back in hot weather, but I think they last until June or July.
My =0A pots were under a potting bench, getting almost no light and only a =0A little water dripping from the pots above. I pull them out when I =0A notice them starting to grow.
Mine have never bloomed, =0A however.
They are in a greenhouse that gets down to about 50F (10C) =0A at night an from 50-100F during the day (depending on outside =0A temperature and sun).

=0A =0A Aroiders,
=0A from the temperatures and seasonal rainfall on =0A Sardinia I guess that Helocodiceros grows from late Sebtember to April =0A or May with the maximum of rainfall in November and December and =0A temperatures down to 8 =B0C (46 =B0F) in December to February.
=0A I would like to know, wether the low =0A temperatures in the growing season are neccessary or if Helicodiceros =0A could be grown (and flower) at higher temperatures as well.
=0A Looking forward to any comment, =0A Bernhard.
