Hiyer! I have an
A. pallidiflorum also. I have never had any trouble with getting flowers, but
then it always does get a big temperature drop in the winter. I have berries on
about one fourth the inflorescences, without doing anything. Indeed, the plants
are up about ten feet off the ground, so it is out of the way to go up and pollinate
the plants. I might have a bunch of berries in the next week or so. Happy
days, Christopher D. Christopher Rogers Invertebrate Ecologist/Taxonomist ((,///////////=====< EcoAnalysts, Inc.

Selinsgrove, PA -----Original Message----- I have an Anthurium pallidiflorum which
had never bloomed since I got it. I shocked it this winter by placing it
in a very cold window- too cold really- but it produced 4 inflorescences in the
following 2 months. BUT the female flowers never produced any
droplets along the spadices, although the inflorescences did
produce scent and turn yellow, while producing lots of pollen. As a
result, I got no berries. Does anyone know why the plant wouldn't produce
the droplets, (like maybe I let it warm up too much when the blooms were
active) or if this is what is supposed to happen with this species?
Or is it an obligate out-crosser or something? Thanks, Mike Kerlin Check Out the new free AIM(R)
