Re: [Aroid-l] Invasive aroids?

From: Michael Kolaczewski <mjkolaffhbc at sbcglobal.net> on 2018.08.15 at 02:30:06(23976) Greetings, Pinellia has yet to show up here in Illinois ( I believe ) There are escapes of Pond Plants, and aquarium plants from time to time, Pistia Among them. So far, our winters, and below zero F ° seem to be holding off some, but not all of these submerged or emerged plants, but that could change over time.

Around here (Nashville, middle Tennessee) Arum italicum could probably become invasive, but the leaves are obvious enough that it can be pulled or dug and shared with a warning. But my experience with the Pinnellia spp. tells me to refuse to share this one most seriously. Never have tried Gonatopus outside – would be surprised to find it seed hardy this far north, but it might be – don’t think I’ll test it out. Good Growing!

I'm wondering whether there are any aroids that are considered invasive? I know some aquatics can be (e.g. Pistia stratiotes), but what about any land-based ones? _______________________________________________ Aroid-L mailing list Aroid-L@www.gizmoworks.com http://www.gizmoworks.com/mailman/listinfo/aroid-l _______________________________________________ Aroid-L mailing list Aroid-L@www.gizmoworks.com http://www.gizmoworks.com/mailman/listinfo/aroid-l --Apple-Mail-A6B73697-B625-45AA-971A-95723ACFF8ED-- --==============‰59342511253949760==
