[aroid-l] Amorphophallus FAQ revised question

From: "Randy Story" story at caltech.edu> on 2002.10.03 at 02:40:59(9481) Hi I have revised the second question of the FAQ by adding Dewey Fisk to the list of Amorphophallus sellers. I thought I would put a plug in for the Aroid trading post, particularly since many of us are in the midst of harvesting tubers. I would encourage people to use it as a way of trading or even giving away our surplus offsets. If you are stuck with, for example, surplus konjac offsets (it looks like I will be) there are undoubtedly many people who would happily take them. They may not have anything to trade, but it's a great way to get people interested in growing these things. Randy +More Revised question and answer: Q.Where can I buy tubers? A. Below are companies that regularly sell 3 or more Amorphophallus species: Plant Delights Nursery http://www.plantdel.com/ Dewey Fisk http://home.earthlink.net/~araceae/ (extensive list of species sent out every fall araceae@earthlink.net ) Cook's Carnivorous Plants http://www.flytraps.com J.D. Andersen Nursery http://www.jdandersen.com/index.htm Malesiana Tropicals http://www.malesiana.tropicals.com.my/index.html Bjorn Malkmus' www.rareplants.de http://www.rareplants.de Amorphophallus tubers can often be found on the Aroid Trading Post http://www.aroid.org/trading/index.html Occasionally people will give away their surplus tubers or offsets. They can sometimes be found on Ebay. The prices are sometimes below "market value", sometimes not. It is best to buy plants while they are dormant.
