Re: [Aroid-l] Synandrospadix vermitoxicus

Would the two or three people who have this species high in their minds be interested in cooperating on a short piece on it for Aroideana? Derek

I also live in Zone 5 (SE Wisconsin).  I have always kept my Synandrospadix stored potted and very dry over the winter in a cool (60F/16C) bedroom.  The tuber sits about 2.5 inches below soil level.  I have only unpotted it once in the past ten years, and that is when for some unknown reason, the tuber, which had already bloomed once for me, “decided” to split in two.  I sold off one of the resulting, smaller tuber and the one I kept is finally reaching blooming size again.

Quick question....I have my Synandrospadix stored dry, I question when and how deep to plant it.  It is approximately a 2 inch tuber.  I am in zone 5.
