Re: Taccarum weddellianum and Synandrospadix

From: "S.P.J. Hoogma" s.p.j.hoogma at hccnet.nl> on 2001.02.23 at 19:47:15(5981) Dear Susan, My seeds of Synandrospadix (thanks Alan) germinated after a 4 weeks stay in my aquarium (of course above the water). I kept them reasonable wet and the air was damp. The same procedure I followed with Anchomanes giganteus (from Bjorn Malkmus), but they took about 2 months! greetings, Sipke Hoogma +More s.p.j.hoogma@hccnet.nl ----- Original Message ----- To: Multiple recipients of list AROID-L Sent: Thursday, February 22, 2001 9:59 PM Subject: Re: Taccarum weddellianum > I have a question about seeds that take a long time to germinate- > I don't have much luck with them- do you keep the seeds on a heating pad, covered with plastic, or what? Mine seem to either dry up, or get mossy. Nothing ever sprouts.
