Re: [Aroid-l] Dracunculus growing on clay Z5

From: "Marek Argent" <abri1973 at wp.pl> on 2009.08.02 at 18:51:41 Hello Jan,   As I rememer you live in Hungary, am I right? I'm afraid they would not survive outdoors. according to the IAS map (attached) I live in zone 7, I live in western Poland, near the letter "n" of "Berlin", If the map is reliable, your zone is 6 (more continental climate with colder winters)   If you have many tubers, you can always try, plant it deep (about 15 cm) and add something loose I don't guarantee a success, but I'll give you a hint: plant it with a pot, after the winter it'll be easy to find if it's still there.   Best, Marek     ----- Original Message ----- From: J.

My soil is clay with sodium more than necessary. I would like to know who have success growing it outside in Zone 5. I would try to plant them out, but I don't want to loose them becouse they have nice reddish color not blackish. They were wild collected in Turkey, but the seller don't know where. Bye, Jan Z5a, Hungary _______________________________________________ Aroid-L mailing list Aroid-L@www.gizmoworks.com http://www.gizmoworks.com/mailman/listinfo/aroid-l Nie znaleziono wirusa w tej wiadomosci przychodzacej.
