Howdy Rob,

I know it came from Victoria..... so it is probably what you are talking
about. However..... why does this form die down far earlier than the other
A. konjac that I have? Someone in Queensland told me that theirs has done
the same thing as mine....and I think they mentioned Collector's Corner.
Are there specific clones of A. konjac that die down before others? I would
say we're talking about a month before by the look of it too. There are no
signs of even a little yellowing on the A. konjac that I got from an Aroid
collector (from this list) here in Canberra, so I would have thought it was
at least something slightly different?
Cheers.
