[aroid-l] konjac flowers and roots

From: "Michael Marcotrigiano" <mmarcotr at email.smith.edu> on 2004.02.23 at 16:43:49(11192) Question for you all: I know that Amorphphalus konjac flowers without soil simply sitting on a bench. +More But... if you successfully pollinate it does it form fruit and viable seed without a root system? just curious since I think I successfully made some "intercultivar" crosses. _______________________________ Michael Marcotrigiano, Ph.D Director of the Botanic Garden and Professor of Biological Sciences Smith College Lyman Conservatory, 15 College Lane Northampton, MA 01063 email: mmarcotr@smith.edu voice: 413-585-2741; fax: 413-585-2744 www.smith.edu/garden www.science.smith.edu/~mmarcotr ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Art is the unceasing effort to compete with the beauty of flowers and never succeeding."
