THANKS

[Brian Williams]

Thanks for the warm welcome to the list. The few species I have all set
seed. And I currently have extras seeds of both the common one here and
the some of the ones I collected if anyone is interested in a trade or
would like to see a pic of them in fruit to ID them.

Also some other things I am growing that are hardy aroids are.
Typhonium gigantea very odd looking to be hardy here.
Colocasia pink china extremely hardy elephant ear.
Amorphophallus konjac
Amorphophallus Kerrii
Arisarum vulgare
Arums around 6 to 8 species and forms
biarum davisii
dracunculus vulgaris
orontium aquaticum
peltandra virginica
pinellia ?
zantedeschia a few forms

I am interested in the skunk cabbage type plants and have seen three
forms. Though on my few attempts to grow it I failed. I don't know what
I am doing wrong planting it next to the creek here. I am interested in
testing the hardiness of all plants and usually do have strange things
make it every year that I over look. Last winter tons of Alocasia
macrorrhiza variegata came back which was a surprise. The most dramatic
though for foliage I would think the colocasia pink china which survived
5 years so far and being run over by a tiller a few times has spread
into a 9ft area of colocasia that come back with out mulch or any help
at all in a very open area. Some bulbs I had 2 to 3 inches under dirt
survived with out harm. Amazing for any aroid bulb.
