RE: Typhonium diversifolium

From: "Wilbert Hetterscheid" hetter at worldonline.nl> on 2002.04.15 at 02:15:28(8547) Ah, so you mean "hardy in MY conditions!" Now THAT is something different. I just cannot imagine a Typhonium surviving -5 or less (that's Celsius, dear people, C E L S I U S )..........

Ones that have been collected in tropical wet areas do not even seem to need a dormancy period! The ones I have had problems with are those collected in cooler/higher climates, Florida is NOT kind to them. I guess the word 'lots' can be interpreted in many ways!! Julius >>LOTS of Typhonium species are very hardy???????? O.k. Dr. Boos, enlighten us with names!!! Wilbert
