[Aroid-l] HELP!!!!!!!!!!!

From: sfhatheway at yahoo.com (Sheldon Hatheway) on 2008.04.08 at 07:02:30(17322) A previous responder may be right. It might just be going into dormancy. If it dies down, check the corm. It may be fine. If not, I'll be happy to send you one of mine.

Well I only fertilized with a small amount..... And def not bugs! I (unfortunately) know and seen the effects of all different types of bugs... I've worked several greenhouses in the last 10 years.... It looks as if the plant is dying slowly, the "stem" is now looking weary.

Dracunculus are perfectly hardy outside (in the ground) here in Canby, OR zone 7B. Mine have survived near zero winters a couple of times and the inflorescence on one was 20" long and over 12" wide!! Quite spectacular (an opinion not necessarily shared by my downwind neighbor!). I usually mulch mine with a few inches of leaves if the weather gets really cold. Good growing!
