Re: 'Self-heading' Philodendrons.

From: SelbyHort at aol.com on 2001.09.06 at 15:13:49(7367) How are seeds of Philodendron leal-costae distributed, by birds perhaps? Must seeds go through the gut or craw of some animal before they can germinate in large bromeliad tank? +More This species seems to always bring up many unanswered cultural questions since so few are found in gardens anywhere. Eduardo, have you been to habitat and observed whether it will only grow associated with a specific bromeliad species? Donna << What about put it in the tank of a monster Vriesea-like bromeliad, just like it occurs in the wild? I couldn?t try this method because I do not have room for something like this in my collection. In near future, maybe I will grow a big tank bromeliad, with plenty of Anthurium bromelicola, A. mourae and Philodendron leal-costae, all of them known to grow in places like this! (together with some frogs, snakes and mosquitoes, that are also found in those tanks) >>
