David: I can't grow it either. I assume it does not like the habitat here.

Could folks talk about culture for A. griffithii.  I've tried a few times,
both in the garden and in pots, and can't even get the darn thing out of
dormancy.   I've used a soil less mix or a soil less mix where the tuber was
surrounded by turface to increase drainage.  I usually hold off on watering
until I see growth but as I said, can't even get the darn thing out of
dormancy.  Most Arisaema come out of dormancy in May in Atlanta so I know
not to expect anything until well into the growing season.  Maybe it's the
heat.

 

Thanks
