[Arisaema-l] last call for seed donations

Eric,

I am confused.  Are you about to do another seed exchange?  Where can I find the 
list you are referring to?

Using the damp paper towel method, I just planted the seed I received last month 
about three weeks ago.  Within two weeks, five species had germinated.  The most 
advanced was A. flavum, with almost a three inch root and about a one inch 
petiole.  I checked again early this week and found two more had germinated.

BTW, the I am using the damp paper towel in a plastic bag method, but I then 
place this on top of the refrigerator, where it is kept nice and warm.  I used 
the top of the refrigerator method almost 20 years ago when I received seed from 
Amorphophallus titam, which had been confiscated by USDA.  I obtained a 90% 
germination rate then.

My very best regards,
David Leedy

Dear Members,

I think we are about to complete the seed list 2012 (hope to announce 
the seedEx 2012 to be opened next week or so).
If you have sent seeds recently that are not yet listed, or if you are 
about to send seeds to be included, please send me a message 
(e.j.gouda at uu.nl).

Spring is coming soon!

Regards,
Eric
