[Aroid-l] Anchomanes difformis var.welwitschii

From: hetter at xs4all.nl (Wilbert Hetterscheid) on 2008.07.28 at 07:36:47(18268) Provided the identification is correct (!!??), it is a species (A. difformis in all its forms and varieties) from the wet forests. So you can put the rhizome in soil, keep it modertately moist and wait untill root growth starts (if there are no roots on your specimen). Then intensify watering a little untill the leaf emerges, then water freely. Cheerio, Wilbert +More > Does anyone know how to grow this? The seller's website I got it from says > it is from from Tropical Africa. Its a nice size bulb but it had moss > growing on it. That tells me that it was partially exposed. Some bulbs are > supposed to grow this way but I dont know whith this one. The seller has > ignored all my emails so they were probably just winging it and dont know > either.
