  Re: [aroid-l] question about tubers vs. bulbs

In New England the flowering ones sometimes have such a short foliar
season that the resulting tuber is smaller the next year and does not
flower. Sometimes they split into multiple leaves and do not flower. I
had mine (not big enough I thought) in my onion cellar and just last
month thought a cat died in the kitchen. A trip to the basement revealed
an etiolated 10 foot stalk with a pale stinker at the end. New
discovery: Light is not necessary for the tuber to stink you out of your
house.
