Re: [Aroid-l] Eminium?

From: Peter Boyce <phymatarum at gmail.com> on 2019.07.27 at 01:55:26 It=E2=80=99s quite a widespread species in the eastern Mediterranean. I have grown it in the past from a collection I made from consolidated sand along the coast from Alexandria. It proved difficult to maintain in cultivation (as did Biarum olivieri with which it co-occurs). I suspect collections from the more usual limestone-derived terra rossa soils on which it occurs in Turkey might be more amenable to cultivation. Off-hand I don=E2=80=99t know if anyone still maintains it but it might be in cultivation in Zurich BG or in Vienna, or Heidelberg.   Sent from Mail for Windows 10   From: The Silent Seed Sent: Thursday, 25 July, 2019 11:02 AM To: Discussion of aroids Subject: [Aroid-l] Eminium?   Is Eminium spiculatum in cultivation at all? I just discovered this fascinating desert aroid when researching Zamioculcas. (On Steve's website, for those of you who knew him.) I'd be interested in learning more if anybody has grown it.   -- The Silent Seed Rare and Unusual plants from around the world.  thesilentseed.com   --_85713067-5C95-44FF-95EB-F0836948A51C_-- --===============0624055051448376311==
