Nepthytis

From: "Agoston Janos" <agoston.janos at citromail.hu> on 2006.12.11 at 19:32:14(14918) Dear All, I asked several months ago how shall I germinate Nepthytis. Well, thank you for those who have helped me with instructions because one of 2 seeds germinated a month ago. I'm very happy. It is also a tropical aroid, so I should keep it warm? (The Aroids boo did not arrived yet...) Bye, Jani +More _______________________________________________ Aroid-l mailing list Aroid-l@gizmoworks.com http://www.gizmoworks.com/mailman/listinfo/aroid-l

It grows very well as an ordinary house plant and I have a large specimen about 3ft tall which lives in my living room in front of north facing windows and is always in berry.

It is a tropical plant, and as far as I know it does not go dormant or have a 'rest' period, so keep them warm and moist at all times! Good Growing, Julius +More Dear All, I asked several months ago how shall I germinate Nepthytis.

The genus must occur in nature as an understory/VERY low light plant seeing that it does so well in your living room in London! What would you say the temps. are during a 24 hr. period in that same room? There are several more species, some minatures that I USED to have that are to me VERY beautiful plants, at least one was available at a past IAS show.
