Hi all! Every time I have an Amorphophallus enter its dormancy stage I leave = the leaf alone until it completely abscisses, with the belief that I may = adversely affect the plant should I cut it off. This often leaves a big = mass of leaf hanging off the side of the bench because the stem has = collapsed half-way up. My question is...how far into dormancy do bulbous = aroids drain any remaining sugars from the leaf and stem? Would any harm = come from topping a plant before it drops off completely by itself? Thanks! Kevin martyn@telcomplus.com
