[Aroid-l] arum question

From: abri1973 at wp.pl (Marek Argent) on 2007.09.14 at 10:41:49(16284) The same with my Dracunculus vulgaris. Some days ago I noticed that it woke up and soon it will put up a leaf. I put the plant in a pot to a fridge, maybe it will prolongate its dormancy, but I think it's too late and I will have to take him back and let it grow. My Arum italicum often puts up leaves in autumn and they stay on the plant during all the winter. But Arum italicum is hardy in my area and Dracunculus vulg. probably not.
