  [Aroid-l] Philodendron self-seeding
From: Don Bittel <donbit121 at hotmail.com> on 2009.08.21 at 01:30:42(19783)
Dear All,
 
    Has anyone heard of any philodendron setting seed on its own in cultivation outside of it's native range? I have a friend who collected a ripe infructesence from philo stenolobum, the wide leaf form, this summer. he has not done any hand pollinating on philo. before, and I explained that it is not always successful even when done right. I have given him seeds of stenolobum and speciosum before, and he said his looked just like those.
 
    I have never seen any pollinators here in florida on philo flowers, but there must be something that helped this one set seed. any comments?
