Hi all,
My large native A. triphyllum tubers (the ones that make to 4 foot =
leaves) grow underground rhizomatous extensions of between 2.5 and 8 cm =
(1-3 in) long. The diameter is 3 to 5 mm (0.13 to .2 in). At the end of =
these extensions (they are neither stolons or runners, which are above =
or at ground level organs) a new tuber forms. Occasionally up to thre =
extension form. The originals soil was Georgia red clay but the garden =
soil has a clay base improved with gypsum, ground pine bark and small =
pine bark nuggets (lots of it) all told about 6 cubic feet. To this I =
add 2 cu. ft. of soil-less commercial mix. Petra has one of my plants =
for observation and I wonder if her tuber has formed such rhizomatous =
extensions?!
