[aroid-l] Anthurium warocqueanum growers,

From: "Alan Galloway" <alan_galloway at ncsu.edu> on 2004.03.31 at 17:59:50(11345) Several years back I was growing Anth. warocqueanum, but it always had leaf damage of one kind or another. At the time I did not have any kind of humidity or +More cooling equipment in the GH, so I never could get the plant where it even had a single non-blemished leaf. Last year I visited a plant collector in Thailand that had a whole slew of these plants. See: http://www4.ncsu.edu/~alan/plants/war/1.html for a pic. They were all absolutely perfect. The grower had an extensive cooling and humidifying system, which just proves that if you can give a plant the growing conditions it wants it will grow perfectly. He also grew them in what appeared to be chunks of decaying coconut shells which provided excellent drainage. After seeing his collection, I may have to try to grow this species again, Alan
