From: "MJ Hatfield" mjhatfield at oneota.org> on 2005.03.26 at 21:48:27(12794) I just rec'd seeds of Typhonodorum lindleyanum. (Thank you, Thank you.) They are planted but I have a couple of questions. Julius says to put rock or crockery at the bottom of the pots so that the soil doesn't actually sit in the water but rather the pot does and will wick water up. However, the Aroideana article makes no mention of that and talks of growing the seedlings in jars, one with some water and one with more water, roots submerged. These seem contradictory. How should I grow them? And just how warm should the soil be for optimum growth? Thanks so much. I'm quite excited, now that I have a greenhouse.

From: "Peter Wunderlin" pmdes at astronet.co.za> on 2005.03.28 at 21:25:44(12804) Hi Mary Jane, just plant the seeds in a plastics container without drainage holes fill it about 80% with good soil and plant the seeds halfway in the soil. Flood the container with water so the water level is slightly above the soil. Thyphonodorums are very easy to grow, no big deal at all. Good growing Best Regards Peter +More ----- Original Message ----- To: Sent: Saturday, March 26, 2005 11:48 PM Subject: RE: [Aroid-l] typhonodorum lindleyanum seeds > I just rec'd seeds of Typhonodorum lindleyanum.

From: "Horak, David" davidhorak at bbg.org> on 2005.03.31 at 21:29:29(12810) Just to add my two cents. I agree with Peter. Typhonodorum seeds germinate easily and quickly. Here at the Garden our "parent" display plant is growing in our shallow pool with its entire root mass completely submerged.It has been that way for several years now. The 3 original plants we have came from a distribution from Brian Williams back in 2001.They bloom a couple times a year and regularly "self" (another topic) and occasionally, when I have not been diligent seed falls into the pool and I eventually find germinated seedlings rooting floating freely in the pool. At the moment I have a large population of seedlings that unfortunately I cannot offer in a general way, but that were germinated in a container of water with no soil and then planted out after the first root/leaf began to appear. It helps if the water temperature is warm, as in 75-80 degrees. Julius rightfully cautions about growing these plants submerged. I believe the big issue with growing with a submerged root zone is having constant fresh water. If sitting in water that becomes stagnant and is not emptied or replaced frequently you are very likely to see leaf tip burning and eventually will kill the plants if the condition is not changed. Lots of fresh water. Those who have applied/requested plants will see them soon as the weather is finally warming up. Dave Horak +More Curator of Orchids and the Robert W.
