RE: [Aroid-l] Alocasia Sanderiana dormant

From: "Denis Rotolante" denis at skg.com> on 2006.11.29 at 21:22:44(14878) It is quite possible that your sanderiana is dormant. You could try unpotting the rhizome and checking for rot disease. If all looks well, remove any dead tissues, repot in fresh potting mix and waterit in. Keep it semi dry until it starts to make new growth.

I have since moved them back into a permanent winter growing room under lights with some natural sunlight. My A. Sanderiana Has shed all of its leaves and I believe that the cooler Temperature in the attic caused it to go dormant. The attic had dropped to the low 40's at night and a few specimens had suffered including my Alocasia and my Sauromatun Venosum. The lowest night Temperature now is 62 degrees. Has anybody experienced this before? ________________________________________________________________________ ____________ Do you Yahoo!? Everyone is raving about the all-new Yahoo!
