Aroid-L Digest, Vol 78, Issue 27

From: Derek Powazek <fraying at gmail.com> on 2011.01.28 at 19:10:04(21839) Hello Aroiders -- Long-time lurker, first time writer. I just wanted to share a photo of my Alocasia (Odora, I believe) inflorescence. It's not the first time it's flowered, it's just the first time I've had a list of people who might be as happy about it as I am. http://www.flickr.com/photos/fraying/5395547833/ A question for those who know more about this than I do: Will this produce seeds? Do I have to do anything to help? If it does seed, I'd happy offer them to anyone who wanted some. Thanks, -- Derek +More http://plantgasm.com _______________________________________________ Aroid-L mailing list Aroid-L@www.gizmoworks.com http://www.gizmoworks.com/mailman/listinfo/aroid-l

You will get lots of offsets from your plant if it is happy, and since it is blooming I will assume that is the case. By the bloom, I would say that you have Alocasia macrorrhizos. Happy days, Christopher HTML +More On Fri, Jan 28, 2011 at 1:10 PM, Derek Powazek wrote: Hello Aroiders -- Long-time lurker, first time writer.
