Re: [Aroid-l] Amorphophallus tuber growth without leaf?

From: Baumfarn Webmaster webmaster at baumfarn.at> on 2006.08.08 at 13:24:26(14480) I see you got curious. I give some more details. 1st case) A. kiusianus - plant not even developed the leaf correctly, never unfolded completely and died fast away. The tuber tripples it's size. 2nd case) Helicodiceros muscivorus - i planted several tubers (some very tiny) in a pot, just one realy thrived. Meanwhile the leaf begin to die back and I digged down to see what the tuber do. And found beneath the biggest tuber (the one with leaf) another tuber even bigger than the other ever was. +More greetings Peter --------------------------------------------------------------------------- treeferns & aroids: http://www.baumfarn.at/treefern (http://www.baumfarn.at) --------------------------------------------------- Amorphophallus network: http://www.amorphophallus.baumfarn.at/ _______________________________________________ Aroid-l mailing list Aroid-l@gizmoworks.com http://www.gizmoworks.com/mailman/listinfo/aroid-l
