Re: [aroid-l] Anthurium regale and Zanthosoma roseum

Dear All:

	Anthrium regale grew well in Selby's Rare Plant House for years.
Mardy Darian does very well with it.  He says it needs lots of pot room,
lots of humidy and fertilizer.  These are, of course, important for most
aroids.

I posted this to the wrong place.

I know everybody else is wanting to ask this question, but they're too
shy. What does "It is difficult to grow but not impossible" mean?

That reminded me of this:

It is from the Web catalog of Malesiana Tropicals.

I don't think it would do well outside here in Phoenix, not even next to
my pond.
