Hi all,

sorry for not writing in a long time. Too busy in the garden observing al=l the plants. Later, when the weather is crappy and frost is in the air, =I have time to reflect and gather all my thoughts and observations as I m=iss all the exuberant growth and eagerly wait in anticipation for the nex=t season, sharing all my covetuousness and licencious desire for more pla=nts with all who would care to read about it.
But presently I have a pressing concern. My consanguineum 'silver center'=have been in decline the last two years in several locations, none bloom=ing this year. Overall its been a good year for Arisaemas here in central=coastal New Jersey, with flavum blooming now. Candidissimum has been ver=y early this year, already expired, and only an early blooming tortuosum =in the sunny southwest facing front garden has shown up, two in the back =shady "woodlands" have not fared well.

Chris (Gussman), what's your recent experience with 'silver center' up th=er 25 miles north of me?
