[Arisaema-l] Seeking Advice and Suggestions

[Peter Taggart]

Hello David,
Growing Aroides is not my greatest area of expertise and I have no
experience of the type of climate you garden in. I am surprised and a
little shocked at there being only one useful and public reply though. I
hope that you had others privately.

Would it be possible for you to make boxes on the ground in a cooler
position, 12 or 18 inches high,  between 2 and 6 feet wide and as long as
you care to, from stones, bricks, logs  or some other building material? If
you were then to fill these with sand, soil, and any organic material such
as tree bark, composted vegetation and old potting compost, (we call them
"frames" in Britain), you might be able to either sink pots in the ground
or plant appropriate species directly into this increased depth of "soil"?
