Re: [Aroid-l] Lasia spinosa seed germination

From: "Alistair Hay" <ajmhay at hotmail.com> on 2004.08.31 at 06:19:18(12130) I would defer to the expert, Julius, on anything to do with cultivating members of the Lasieae, but on the matter of the habit of L. spinosa, I can say that it is very variable: from tightly clumping erect-stemmed forms through decumbent to stoloniferous ones. Like the degree of dissection of the leaf blade, it can be partly accounted for by environment, but only partly: plants with different habit can still be differentiated when they are grown under identical conditions.
