Query from colleague about Taro

From: Jonathan Ertelt jonathan.ertelt at vanderbilt.edu> on 2001.05.04 at 19:38:06(6368) I received this from a colleague on a research and education greenhoue curators' listserve, and offered to forward it to this listserve, which I was sure would be able to provide information and recommendations at the very least. Please respond to his email, (also listed in his signature). TIA for your help. Jonathan Ertelt +More Hi everyone, I'm working with a student and a researcher on Taro. I grew 2 types in our research greenhouse one was green and one was purple. Unfortunately we don't know what these cultivars are called Colocasia esculenta "____"? any ideas? I am also looking for as many different cultivars as I can find to propagate at my greenhouse for this project. Can anyone send me small corms or something that I can propagate from or suggest a source to purchase them? Thanks in advance for any help.
