I am up in the Blue Mountains west of Sydney. Around 700m above
sea level.

We get occasional flurries of snow in
Winter but nothing that stays on the ground.

I would be interested in trading plant
material or seed with Australian growers. 

Hard to do with Tassie though.

Hello All,

It was suggested that an introduction should be made.

I am a poor plant nut to say the least. I Live in Australia
and have been growing one thing or another for most of my life.

I spent several years working in nurseries and ran a
landscaping business for some time.

These days I teach Horticulture for a living.

I have been growing some Arisaema and other aroids
for at least six years or so after a friend gave me some. Most grow quite well
for me but some are shy to flower.

My biggest problem would probably be not having them
in the ground. I like the control pot culture gives but have numbers of some to
try in ground now.

Very interested in obtaining more species so have
been madly importing seed from all over.

The seed exchange here looks very interesting, I like
the concept of sharing plants as it has served my friends and I well on several
occasions when there is a loss. We can just give some back.

I will probably be an occasional visitor and
reader/poster as there is not much time for everything these days.

Regards Colin
