Re: Sauromatum

I always unpot some and store them inside, but some could stand  -10 °Celsius for about 14 days in 20 Liter pots in our winter her in Germany near Hannover N: 52° 22' 13" ; E: 09° 43' 59"

Cheers, Bernhard.

Very nice!

Yes, it looks just like the ones I collected in Thailand, and saw in Laos, and looks like the ones The Banta had collected in India. Can your plants overwinter out doors?

Hi Christopher,

that is definitely an extraordinary (geno-) type.

Mine look more like yours; I got mine years ago from the forum member Olvi who asked for the Amorph. cirrifer ID.
Pics attached...

Bernhard.

Greetings one and all,

Many years ago, I grew Sauromatum horsefieldi (from Thailand) in California. It grew very well for me, but died when I moved to Kansas. 

Here is an image of the leaf:

I bought a new plant from Tony Avent (plant Delights) back in November, and it has come up now. This plant is from a northern China population, so is supposed to be more cold hardy, than the plants I had originally collected in Thailand way back when.

This leaf is quite a bit different:

It is very healthy and is pushing up a bloom right now as well.  But, this ecotype has more leaflets, the leaflets are much narrower and more elongate, and the leaf seems to be larger than the ones I had from Thailand.

Any one else have this plant? Are you seeing the same thing? a decade or more ago, I gave away many offsets of the Thailand form. Anyone still have them? It would be interesting to do a direct comparison of the inflorescence and flowers as well.

Happy days,

Christopher
