Re: Syngonium seeds

Dear Windy and Friends,

My old friend Vic Soukup was the person searching for the seeds of MANY genera of aroids.
I had sent him seeds of what I think was escapee Syngonium podophyllum collected here in S. Florida growing on a huge Cypress tree on the edge of the Everglades.  This and other escaped aroid species are common, and in some instances have become real invasive and a pest here in the South.

Hopefully Vic will contact you.

The Best,

Subject: [Aroid-l] Syngonium seeds

Hi, Everyone,
 
I remember a while back someone was asking for Syngonium seeds for a project they were working on. 
Where I live Syngoniums are growing wild, but I never came across any seed. 
Today while walking my dogs in the woods I came across a fallen tree with a large Sygonium vining on it, and there it was ripe Syngonium seeds!  I heard these seeds are tasty, so luckily no wild chickens or rats had found them first.
I will put these seeds into the refrigerator for a while in hopes the person who inquired is still out there, or someone who remembers this query, contacts me.
 
Windy
