Re: [aroid-l] Hardy forest aroids

From: "David Ruland" druland at atlantabotanicalgarden.org> on 2004.01.09 at 22:20:03(10998) Hey Brian, I have a few Peltandra viginica from Coweta Co., GA that I have been growing for about 6 or 7 years. They have fruited in the past few so if I have some seed you are more than welcome to some. Quite a bit usually.

My family nursery plans to expand and we have bought the 5 acres behind our nursery. At the end of the property is a wooded area with a fairly large creek. I hope to transform it into a very nice woodland garden using unusual hardy tropicals and hardy plants. Here are some aroids that I would like to get if any one has seeds or plants to spare thanks. Calla palustris I have never seen or know any one who grows this but would be interested in finding it Calla montana Lysichiton americanus. I have seen a few forms of this and the more the better. Does anyone grow these or know of wild forms? I have seen pics of highly veined forms or unusually large forms. Peltandra virginica I have maybe a few small ones of this but have heard of different forms anyone growing them? Symplocarpus I have seen two forms ones with yellow flowers and some with red as well as in-between anyone growing these? Would be willing to by or trade for starts of these if anyone has them please contact me THANKS
