[Aroid-l] Amorphophallus titanum

From: bill.weaver at hp.com (Weaver, Bill) on 2008.05.05 at 21:26:56(17556) I'd really suggest not handling the corm during dormancy. The possibility of injuring the corm and actually inducing a rot is too great. I don't even re-pot it until the corm shows signs of new growth.

Cover atleast 2 inch above the tuber. take tuber out ( once a month ?)and check for soft spots/rots . Dont add any plant food into water during dormant season, temperature should be around 85 F( Dont fluctuate temperature) . It should be OK, hopely zeren -----Original Message----- From: E Morano To: Discussion of aroids Sent: Sat, 3 May 2008 2:32 pm Subject: [Aroid-l] Amorphophallus titanum I have some Titanum's that have gone dormant. I need to know how to care for the dormant bulbs. They dont look like most other amorphs that can be stored dry but I could be wrong so thats why Im asking.
