Re: [aroid-l] Ebay titanum

From: "plantsman" <plantsman at prodigy.net> on 2004.02.04 at 20:45:49(11071) It looks like the seller is a newbie that has mostly only bought items on eBay. They have only a (7) feedback. I have also written to the seller advising them of their error and asking for provenance of their original plant. They stated that it was from stock that had been in the US for over thirty years. Can anyone recall when the first flowering was in the US? I didn't think A. titanum had ever produced offsets and propagation was from seeds. +More David Sizemore ----- Original Message ----- To: Sent: Wednesday, February 04, 2004 2:29 PM Subject: Re: [aroid-l] Ebay titanum > Susan, > I agree with you the Amorph pictured on the ebay site is definitely > Am. konjac.
