=0A=0A =0A Normally interruptus has a dormant period of a few months =0Aafter leaf shed and then starts growing by itself. So I would keep it dry untill =0Alife returns to it. =0A =0A Best, =0A Wilbert =0A =0A =0A =0A =0A Hiyer! =0A =0A Too bad someone withe experience with this species did not write in. I =0A was interested in the answer. I have no experience with it, and no literature =0A on it. From the IAS website, I see that it is from Viet Nam. I =0A would leave in soil, potted up nicely, sitting on a tray of damp sand. This =0A should maintain some little moisture if the roots needs it, and hopefully =0A not let it rot if it wants to be dry. =0A =0A Good luck! =0A Christopher

=0A =0A =0A =0A =0A I have an am.Interruptus that I bought off of =0A ebay, I've kept it warm and grew it all winter and now its =0A gone dormant. The leaf had turned yellow and was shriveled =0A when I removed it. When I dug up the tuber, a lot of the roots =0A had died off but it still had living white roots, some of =0A which look like they are actively growing. The tuber also =0A looks light in color. If I didnt know what it was, it could =0A pass for a titanum.
My question is: will it stay =0A dormant all year or will it wake up in a few months like a =0A titanum would? If not then should I just let it dry out and =0A sit or should I store it in soil?
I refuse to =0A participate in the =0A recession, Erin Vincent =0A Morano
