  [Aroid-l] Amorphophallus titanum dormancy
From: botanist at malesiana.com (Peter Boyce) on 2007.10.21 at 04:22:54(16565)
This is nonesense; the area that titanum grows wild is subject to a marked monsoonal climate and during the dry phase the plants are dormant and leafless for an extended period; at this time the temperature is in the mid-high 30sC (mid-high 90s F). Furthermore, the temperature would never - even on a cold night in the height of the monsoon - ever drop below the low 20sC (c. 70 F).
