I've had good results with amorphophallus, so I'm not surprised to see pseudodracontium in your list. But arisaema does surprise me. Does that apply generally, or are there particular species or a section of the genus which can be rooted from leaf cuttings? Steve (Did anyone else catch Tony on Martha Stewart the other morning? Though aroids were not the topic, Amorphophallus was mentioned - Martha has one [species not stated] in her greenhouse.) -- Steve Marak -- samarak@gizmoworks.com _______________________________________________ Aroid-l mailing list Aroid-l@gizmoworks.com http://www.gizmoworks.com/mailman/listinfo/aroid-l _______________________________________________ Aroid-l mailing list Aroid-l@gizmoworks.com http://www.gizmoworks.com/mailman/listinfo/aroid-l
