[Aroid-l] Arisaema sp. aff. grapsospadix

From: plantguy at zoominternet.net> on 2005.11.15 at 00:29:20(13540) Hi all, I received from Chen Yi last spring an Arisaema with the ID of Ar. sp. aff. grapsospadix. The tuber is rhizomatous in nature and appeared to have 'perennial' roots much like a Hippeastrum or Hymenocallis. It had 3-part leaves which were very thick and dark green. I can send a pic of the influorescence to anyone for ID purposes. It had a pretty blue, hairy spadix (I did not take a pic of that for whatever reason). It went dormant after growing from march until Sept. and I'm wondering how to care for it this winter. So far I have left it alone in its pot, but am wondering if I should keep it just barely moist and at what temperature? Last spring after receiving it I watered occassionally based on the root structure and the one did fine (the other was lost I'm afraid), but am not sure if this is a good idea for the entire winter. Any help would be much appreciated, Dan +More Dan Devor Gibsonia, PA zone 6a _______________________________________________ Aroid-l mailing list Aroid-l@gizmoworks.com http://www.gizmoworks.com/mailman/listinfo/aroid-l
