Re: Anthurium superbum

From: plantnut at macconnect.com (plantnut) on 2000.11.16 at 15:20:42(5685) Paul, You did not say how old your Anthurium is but.... If it is a juvinal, they will often produce an inflorescence to get the polled spread around... sort of spreading the genes type thing... but, as in a lot of other species, they do not produce fruit till the plant is a bit more mature... Young plants will produce large quantities of pollen... but only a mature plant in good condition will really produce good viable seed.... You did nothing wrong.... Congratulations on being Speaker at the meeting at FTG later this month... I will try to make it. Dewey +More >I have a plant of this that pu tout for the first ime what seems like fertile >fruit. It has done this before but the inflorescence(using orchid terms) died >before fruit was produced. I planted much f the berries but after a month >nothing has happened. I was windering if there is something i would not know >about getting them to germinate. Thanks for any help. >Paul Marcellini Your source for Tropical Araceae. You are invited to visit:
