Keep the species pure

[Paul Christian]

Hi Tom, and welcome from a fellow nutter,

all,

No Ray, No Ray, No Ray, NO, lets not hear how anyone made them, just pass me
their names and addresses and I will visit them.  Daffodils and Gladiolus
were nice once, don't do this to Arisaemas. Leave them pure, keep them
clean, its is bad enough that they change sex.

I won't send you any omeiense if your cross-breed them.


>Please welcome Tom Jacobs, our 100th. member. Tom grows Arisaema at
>Hopewell Junction, NY in zone 6a. To date his collection is small, but
>growing.

>He lives on White Pine and Larch woodland. Sounds great for Arisaema.

>Tom is interested in inter-specific crosses of Arisaema, so if you can
>help him with
>suggestions and knowledge of existing crosses, please do. In fact, how
>about someone
>posting what we know about Arisaema hybrids.

>I could only find
>A. monophyllum x serratum, A. sikokianum x tosaense, and A. sikokianum x
>takedae,
