Re: Synandrospadix vermitoxicus

What an amazing spadix—so different from what I’m getting used to seeing on my Alocasias! Gets me excited to delve deeper into more genera!

I was interested in Synandrospadix vermitoxicus as it originates near Salta in northern Argentina.  On one of many trips to the ALMA telescope on the W side of the Andes I had hoped to visit Salta.  In 2010 I saw my first one on a visit to Silver Krome and Denis Rotolante--quite a thrill.  I had a donation of a few seeds from a list member, which thrived.  Last year one was battered by hail; this year it sprouted too soon (it was watered during its dry season) so is leggy and broken but still has 4 blooms.  It has child from a seed I didn't know I had, which fell in a nearby pot of A bulbifer.

Clear skies,
