Re: [Aroid-l] Amorphophallus impressus question

From: "plantguy at zoominternet.net" <plantguy at zoominternet.net> on 2010.07.21 at 11:01:39(21214) Hi Maarten, Yes, this is perfectly normal for A. impressus. When I first grew them from seed I saw this and was quite surprised as you are, but Wilbert confirmed this was typical. Unfortunately, they stop being hirsute once they get larger. +More Dan Gibsonia, PA Original Message: ----------------- From: M.van_Dinther@lumc.nl Date: Sun, 18 Jul 2010 17:22:10 +0200 To: aroid-l@gizmoworks.com Subject: [Aroid-l] Amorphophallus impressus question I have recently aquired an Amorphophallus impressus tuber with offsets. It produced a petiole with small hairs on it (see link), which I have not seen with any other species of Amorphophallus that I have in culture. I have looked in the literature to see if this is normal for A.impressus, but could not find any information on this. Can anybody tell me if this is normal? Thanks!
