Re: [aroid-l] rooting Philodendron cuttings

From: Neil Crafter golfstra at senet.com.au> on 2003.09.28 at 23:27:27(10647) Lester To my knowledge, all Philodendrons develop roots only in the zone immediately below the internode, at least all the ones I have in my collection do. Unable to help with the plant itself, although regarding the name, Tom Croat has restored the name P.hederaceum var. oxycardium for the common plant previously called scandens and oxycardium. Have not seen this particular cultivar out here in Australia yet, but if its a tissue cultured plant, no doubt we will soon. kind regards Neil +More Neil Crafter Adelaide, Australia On Thursday, September 25, 2003, at 07:35 AM, Lester Kallus wrote: Can Philodendrons such as Philodendron venosum develop roots anywhere other than at their leaf nodes? Also, does anyknow know of a resource other than Glasshouseworks for Philodendron scandens medio pictum http://www.glasshouseworks.com/images4/phil-scandensmedio.jpg I'd order it from them but by the time they'd ship it, the snow would be on the ground here and it would freeze on my front porch by the time I got home.
