Re: Great Plant Arisaema $$$


Duncan,  is this the Chen Yi source I read so much about on Arisaema-L?  If
it is, all, the prices are good, the plant names sometimes quite creative
and they are wild collected in China.  A lot of  nurseries are buying these
- the best of them to grow on, correctly ID and then sell; those not quite
there are, I hear, selling them under the names given to them when
purchased - not always correct.  There have been numerous posts about
ordering from Chen Yi...some good experiences, some not so good.  I'm not
saying don't order, just giving a heads up that ordering from China is not
the same as ordering from a US mailorder nursery or buying from your local
garden center, so be prepared.
