[Arisaema-l] A. griffithii culture

[robyn82hn at charter.net]

I grew mine from seed.  It finally bloomed last year.  But this spring 
we had a hard freeze when the plant was just starting to grow.  I did 
not put the pot inside as I should have so the plant froze.  During the 
summer a small tuber began to grow but who knows when and if it will 
ever bloom again.
