Pinellia Growers:
Perhaps I mentioned this last year, but it bears repeating. Last year, w=e
discovered that Pinellia 'Polly Spout' is only SELF-STERILE. When we gro=w
it within 30' of another pinellia species, it regains fertility...FYI.

"Polly Spout' is an artificially produced hybrid of P. pedatisecta & P.
tripartita atropurpurea (created by Dick Weaver of WeDu Nursery). It's
sterile, producing neither seed nor bulbils, and is a great garden plant,
clumping up and having characteristics of both parents.
Most Pinellia tend to be quite weedy, especially the ones that make the
bulbils. P. ternata is particularly obnoxious. It's name is often precede=d
by "the dreaded"!
For those who don't know, the easiest way for me to tell a Pinellia from =an
Arisaema is that in the former the back of the spadix is fused to the
spathe.
P. cordata makes bulbils, but its variegated form is so attractive that i=t's
worth a spot in the garden.
