Re: [Aroid-l] Ulearum donburnsii

From: "D. Christopher Rogers" <branchiopod at gmail.com> on 2020.06.01 at 12:34:43 That is really cool! I had U. donburnsii=C2=A0 many years ago. It did quite well for me and bloomed regularly. It also divided for me=C2=A0several times, and I was able to give away=C2=A0many plants. One winter the heat went out in my greenhouse, and that was it. I have used that method to propagate Amorphophallus, Sauromatum, Typhonium,=C2=A0Nephthytis, Arisaema, Gonatopus, Hapaline,=C2=A0Dracontium, and Ancomaenes.=C2=A0 Ancomaenes can also be easily grown from large broken off roots. Happy days!

Surprisingly it can be propagated by cutting off leaves at the petiole and leaving it in moss/soil. Over time a rhizome will form at the cut. Other Ulearum can also be propagated this way, I do not know of any other neotropical genera propagatable by leaf cuttings. Photos are of an adult flowering plant, leaf progress at a few weeks, 4,5 months, 10 months and a year later.
