Re: [Aroid-l] Helicodiceros potting

Hello Aroiders,
Just to throw the cat amongst the pigeons: My plants grow along the
horizontal plane (tuber wise) if given a large pot, so I always repot them
as I find them. The tuber does grow a little higher each season, but I
find that it is always in the general horizontal direction as a whole. I
get many offsets (maybe 10 plus each year from a large tuber), I have never
considered planting them any other way, maybe I will give it a go next year,
just to see.

Hiyer,
I have never planted them horizontally, but I might give it a try as an
experiment. I plant them vertically, and get many flowers and lots of
offsets.
Good luck!

Aroiders,
recently I read somewhere that Helicodiceros muscivorus tubers should be
potted horizontically instead of vertically.
Any comments?
Happy potting,
Bernhard.
