George,
With our winter and early spring weather behaving like and erratic =
yo-yo, it has been hard for the Jacks to know when or how to perform. =
Those that reacted to the very early warm weather got hit by the freeze =
that came right on the heels of the record warmth. Some of my native =
triphyllum that came up early was knocked all the way back to the =
ground. Other locations are late and just now emerging. Some not more =
than 20 - 25 feet from ones hit hard by freeze.A. ringens is always =
early, and some were damaged this year, others are ok... in the same =
location. Two of my other Japanese early arisaema are now mush from soil ==
line up... or now over on the ground. Later species should be ok, I =
would think. I will know before long......

Found my first A. triphyllum of this spring yesterday.  Two little =
guys about 5"  (12 cm) tall, with the spath fully expanded, but the =
leaves just starting out.  Both were pale green with only a trace of =
maroon on the inside of the spath limb, and were probably stoloniferous =
babies of the same plant as they were only about 3" apart.  For some =
reason this seems a very common propagation method in the clones around =
here.  Both were male flowers, (I unzipped their jeans to check).
