Re: [Aroid-l] Looking for info on achamones welwitschiI

From: Christopher Rogers <branchiopod at gmail.com> on 2011.11.15 at 14:44:21(22285) Hiyer, Ken and Jude! I had one that grew nearly nonstop for several years. Then it went dormant for a year and a few months. I kept checking it for rot. Eventually it went back to growing like mad. Most of the plants I have grown have a definite dormant period of about three months. Happy days, Christopher HTML +More On Mon, Nov 14, 2011 at 10:32 AM, Ken Mosher wrote: Jude, I'm surprised to hear that your Anchomanes has been dormant for a year. Have you checked on the tuber? Mine don't generally have a well defined dormancy and grow pretty much year-round if conditions are favorable. -Ken On Sun, Nov 13, 2011 at 7:49 AM, The Silent Seed wrote: I have one - I had a bunch, but they rotted from getting too cold and damp - but the one I have is about grapefruit sized (and the others were maybe twice that big) - Grows to about 10 feet tall. They definitely like it warmer - 70's and up. Mine has been dormant for at least one year now, and I am not sure why. I think if you google Anchomanes, you will find more info.
