Subject: [Aroid-l] ghost seedlings
I get white segregants from my Amorphophallus konjac 'Shattered Glass'. They
live for about 3-6 months depending on the corm size but then they die out
and when I dig them up there is no new corm.

and scroll down with the "nearly white" link to see pure white ones
