Re: [Aroid-l] Synandrospadix vermitoxicus - Germination

From: STARSELL at aol.com on 2009.10.07 at 02:37:48(20162) Hi All, As one of the fortunate ones to receive some of these seeds I am happy to report that one has emerged already. A few days ago I was able to see that the radicle of that seed was in the soil media. HTML +More Can't tell for sure about any others although it looks as though they may have the radicle in the soil as well, but they are not so easily observed as the first one. BTW, I discovered that a satellite box stays warm all the time. Even when it is off. :-) regards, Alison In a message dated 9/21/2009 6:37:59 P.M.
