Subject: [Aroid-l] Premature amorphophallus dormancy
I just purchased a large A.henryi that looked already fully grown for
the year. Its about 18 inches tall and its about 3 years old.The guy I
got it from said that he was growing it in full sun. So I put it in
full sun only to have it get badly burned. I know that some amorphs can
be grown in full sun if you start them there because I have done it
before. Anyway, It is starting to get vertical wrinkles on the petiole
as if it is starting to go dormant. Does anyone know if it will just go
dormant for the season and be fine? Or is it possible that it will die?
About half of the leaves were sunburned.
