Re: [Aroid-l] Amorphophallus availability?

From: Dan Levin <levin at pixar.com> on 2008.11.20 at 00:36:28(18738) Hi Jared, Though not quite yet to the extent of appearing in a Home Depot garden center nearest you... A. titanum has been faring quite well in horticulture +More and is no longer the rarity it once was. I can further report that the UC Berkeley Botanical Garden currently has a number of strong seedlings in cultivation (available for purchase, btw) resulting from a direct cross of two of Jim Symon's infamous lot. The seedlings have been offered periodically at the Garden for $30 but (lest we forget the money's going to a good cause here...) nevertheless suspect I could obtain an even better price for IAS members if folks are interested. Please feel free to respond to me off-list if you'd like- and this applies to any/ all interested parties. I would be happy to assist in any way. -Dan On Nov 19, 2008, at 6:57 AM, JaredR McKinley wrote: > Hey all. I am interested in growing some Amorphophallus again.
