propagation

From: Tony Avent <tony at plantdel.com> on 1998.01.12 at 16:10:44(1821) Aroiders: Two propagation questions: 1- Has anyone had any experience slicing tubers of dracunculus vulgaris for propagation purposes? 2- I have been entrusted with a stunning Symplocarpus foetidus with a wide cream margin that was found by my friend Darrell Probst. Sorry, I didn't get pictures taken last season, but promise to do so this year. As there is only one division, we would obviously like to propagate it. We are considering crown cutting, as is used in hostas. Does anyone have any experience with vegetative propagation of skunk cabbage?

From: Guerin Wilkinson <guerin at ix.netcom.com> on 1998.01.12 at 22:23:06(1825) I wouldn't be suprised if Fred Case has experience with this. He's not on the internet unfortunately (as far as I know).

From: MJ Hatfield <oneota at ames.net> on 1998.01.15 at 20:27:58(1830) Tony, I do hope that you will report back to us the results of sicing tubers of dracunculus vulgaris and crown cutting the stunning Symplocarpus foetidus. +More Thanks. MJ Hatfield

From: Tony Avent <tony at plantdel.com> on 1998.01.17 at 22:47:48(1843) MJ: We have sliced and diced the dracunculus and crown cut some green symplocarpus...I will know in spring how they did, and will try to report back. We did slice tubers of Amorphophallus bulbifer last year and they did great (5 pieces per bulb).

From: "derek burch" <dburch23 at bellsouth.net> on 2015.03.06 at 01:42:15(23241) Isn’t there anyone out there trying new things with their aroids – propagation in coffee grounds, vacuum cleaner fluff, newspaper pots, aeroponics? Even tomato growers are planting upside down, and the vegetable industry has embraced grafting of all manner of unlikely things. The turf industry has new grasses that thrive on salt or brackish water and one stadium grows its whole playing field outside in the sun and moves it in for games (I don’t think that I made that one up). Have you trained whitefly to perform tricks, tested nurse crops to maintain control agents, used yellow cards (standard in commercial greenhouses), planted marigolds in your hanging baskets or garlic to keep amorphophallus company.. Please share articles with your hidebound fellow members. Articles short or long can come to me (derekburch23@gmail.com) or to Carla (Carla.kostelac@mobot.org). Please.
