Re: [aroid-l] Amorph Blues, my 2 cents.


This may not help those whose tubers wake up earlier than mine do,
but I put mine outside to acclimatize as soon as a nose starts to
break soil - before they leaf out - so by the time the leaves start
to unfurl, they are used to being in what passes for sun for me.
