Atropurple Pinellias

From: Wilbert Hetterscheid <hetter at vkc.nl> on 1998.09.14 at 15:04:36(2599) Pinelliophiles, A few months ago there was some discussion on the list about purple-spathed pinellias. At that time I was close to having one flowering. I got the plant from Tony Avent and upon flowering definitely proved to be a P. tripartita. So there is definitely a purple form there. Recently I flowered a small Pinellia that I got from Shing Lam many years ago, which he had bought in China. This creep didn't want to flower when in a pot although it was lovingly taken care of. This year, a small bulblet escaped on to the table and trhived like none of its parents and flowered. Behold, a beautiful purple form of P. ternata. The leaves are deeply three-cleft to three-sect and produce bulbils in the lower half of the petiole, as a proper P. ternata should. Peter Boyce tells me he does not know of any description of P. ternata including atropurple forms. So be it, but it is alive! I suppose I have to multiply this for you guys, huh?
