Arisaema seedlings

From: dmartin at cdmas.crc.fmlh.edu (Don Martinson) on 1997.03.25 at 21:54:52(536) In early January, I germinated some seeds of Arisaema dracontium ( generously obtained from Fausto Ceni). They have been growing nicely under lights with 2 leaves/seed, to a height of about 2 inches. They now look like they are starting to die back. Is this a normal time for a first growing cycle? Shall I begin to withold water and how long a dormancy should I give them before starting the second growing season? I would like to eventually get them out of doors here in Zone 5b. I also have about 80 A.triphyllums beginning to germinate and it will help me to judge their growing period also. Thanks, Don Martinson +More dmartin@cdmas.crc.fmlh.edu
