A. konjac blooming

From: "Weaver, Bill" bill.weaver at hp.com> on 2006.01.17 at 05:04:37(13709) I have a couple Amorphiophallus konjac about to bloom and was wondering if they are like Amorphophallus titanum and are receptive to pollen right after opening, and then produce pollen the next day?

From: "Weaver, Bill" bill.weaver at hp.com> on 2006.01.18 at 17:35:21(13715) Does A. konjac open in the morning or evening? My only experience so far has been with A. titanum and they always seem to start opening in the evening.

From: bonaventure at optonline.net on 2006.01.23 at 03:42:58(13768) Great! I always wondered.... if you crossed a paeoniifolius with a gigas, would you get a giant purple-brain spadix that would fall over and hit you in the head?.......;-) +More ----- Original Message ----- Date: Friday, January 20, 2006 6:29 pm Subject: RE: [Aroid-l] A. konjac blooming > I'm gonna try...... > > Bill > > -----Original Message----- > From: aroid-l-bounces@gizmoworks.com > [mailto:aroid-l-bounces@gizmoworks.com] On Behalf Of yq > Sent: Thursday, January 19, 2006 08:29 AM > To: Discussion of aroids > Subject: Re: [Aroid-l] A. konjac blooming > > bonaventure@optonline.net wrote: > > Please, please, please make a cross.

From: "Weaver, Bill" bill.weaver at hp.com> on 2006.02.06 at 23:59:13(13821) Oh Well..... My attempt at crossing A. titanum with A. konjac went down the drain. The female flowers contracted a grey mold that I was unable to stop. Maybe next time.
