[Arisaema-l] Arisaema time begins....

[Charles S. Hunter]

Spring sprung a little earlier down south. My early Japanese plants are all
up and even getting a little past bloom. The showiest to me are A.
sikokianum, A. sazensoo, A. ringens and one tall A. serratum var. mayebarae
(if you don't have this one, get one!). 

 

My very robust A. triphyllum, var. triphyllum plants from northern Delaware
are just starting to bloom- I put some seeds in the exchange from these,
which are bigger plants than any I have seen here in the south. 

 

Still waiting for a lot of the Chinese ones to do their thing.

 

A picture of A. serratum, var. mayebarae is below taken May 1st last year, a
little bit past bloom then. Plant is almost 4 feet tall.

Spring is coming slowly to NJ.  

 

However, my A. amurense and A. triphyllums, both very reliable, are sending
up their "spikes".  

 

Also coming up is my reliable A. lobatum (pale form).........the only
remnant of several Chen Yi bulbs.   This has been two mature female plants
for the last couple years.  However, I see a 3rd plant this year.......let's
keep our fingers crossed for seed.  I am always afraid I will lose this
plant before I have a chance to propagate it.  

 

How is everyone else doing?   -Chris
