Dear Christopher: It
is probably not the extent of darkness that is important but the temperature
and the degree of humidity. If you bring it up too high in the greenhouse
the light would be better but it could be too hot. Obviously plants respond
favorbly to light, not darkness but the temperature control must be monitored
because if you have nice humidity with too much light you will develop too much
heat. Alternatively conditions too dark might not work either. Clearly
regrowing sick or weak plants is a slow process some times. Tom From: aroid-l-bounces@gizmoworks.com

Selinsgrove, PA -----Original Message----- Dear Christoper:
Lynn Hannon always had a lot of luck with things like this in sphagnum and in a
plastic box under her benches. It will need a lot of humidity but no water
except for occasionally moistening the sphagnum. A see through plastic lid
allows you to inspect it without disturbing it. Tom From: aroid-l-bounces@gizmoworks.com [mailto:aroid-l-bounces@gizmoworks.com]
On Behalf Of D. Christopher Rogers Hiya, Two separate questions: 1) Can Amorphophallus taurostigma be stored dry during dormancy? 2) I was given a very small offshoot of Anthurium warocqueanum, with two leaves less than an inch in length, and a
small root bud. It was removed from the parent main stem. I have planted it in
epiphyte mix (because I do not know what else to do with it) and put it in the
darkest corner of my greenhouse, in conditions that are similar to where the
parent was growing. Can anyone tell me what I need to do to keep it alive and
growing? Thank you all in advance! Christopher D. Christopher Rogers Invertebrate Ecologist/Taxonomist ((,///////////=====< EcoAnalysts, Inc. (530) 406-1178 ● Invertebrate Taxonomy ●
