From: "StroWi at t-online.de" <StroWi at t-online.de> on 2015.02.24 at 08:40:36 Nancy and Peter, thanks for your input and confirmation!   Steve, a friend in our www.amorphophallus-forum.de (translation button at the very end of forum page) saw my post here, too, and wrote that he got seeds from a friend from Texas recently. http://plants.usda.gov/core/profile?symbol=3DARER The plant flowers as long as there is enough water; during droughts it survives as a tuber without leaves. So I guess that seeds can be collected easily.   Note: All parts of plant are poisonous if ingested ( http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/go/133578/ )   Happy growing, Bernhard.   -----Original-Nachricht----- Betreff: Re: [Aroid-l] id of a very strange plant please Datum: Tue, 24 Feb 2015 05:16:04 +0100 Von: "Steve Hatfield" <moondogman@comcast.net> An: "'Discussion of aroids'" <aroid-l@www.gizmoworks.com>   Anyone know of a source for seeds for this plant?
