Re: [Aroid-l] collecting titnaum seeds in the wild - forbidden?

From: BO MAGRYS <bonaventure at optonline.net> on 2014.11.12 at 21:55:58(23163)
What I worry about in "captive" titanum populations; are we breeding and
selecting for earlier flowering, and thereby perhaps smaller,
individuals of the species?
In general for any cultivated plant also is the problem of in-breeding
depression. I think it may be the cause of some of my losses of
self-seeding annuals over the years which started from one individual.
