Clean the outer covering off the seeds (the seeds pulp out when the ripe fruit is squeezed between finger and thumb) wash-rinse the seeds off in water in a fine strainer, sow the seed in chopped wet sphagnum in a large zip-loc bag kept in a warm, bright area out of any direct sun. When the seedlings are large enough transplant to small pots w/ a suitable loose, well draining mix. Good Growing Julius +More My anthurium gracile has some nice red berries on it. I would appreciate any recommendations on when to pick them and any seed growing culture tips. Thanks, Tom Vincze __ _______________________________________________ Aroid-l mailing list Aroid-l@gizmoworks.com http://www.gizmoworks.com/mailman/listinfo/aroid-l
