Shipment from Italy received
|
From: Diana Pederson <dlpederson at voyager.net> on 1997.09.23 at 14:41:45(1315)
I just received my shipment from Italy. I am excited about being
able to plant some species bulbs into our church bible garden.
I am not sure how to plant: Gynandrirs sysirncheum Laaimedusa or
Nothoscoroon. (Not sure about these spellings--having trouble
reading). The first one is seeds and the 2nd is bulbs. Would
someone tell me about these?
Should I assume the arums (Italcicum, and purpureospathum) are
hardy or tender?

My partner with the church garden is really excited because we
can say these are straight from the region rather than just
hybrids.

You can find the correct spelling for the above plants on my first
E-mail.
Gynandriris sisyrinchium (collected in Lampedusa Is.) and Nothoscordon
inodorum (coll. in Tenerife) grow in a mediterranean climate.
The first needs a very hot and dry dormancy period in summer, the second
comes from subtop. america. - full sun. They can survive till -5/-100C
Arum italicum is hardy (till -150C) but Arum purpureospathum is not so
hardy: better not under -40C. For both dry rest period in summer. Light
shadow.
