greenzone5 Posted December 16, 2012 Report Share Posted December 16, 2012 I`m collecting Syngonium species about a year. I have bought all my plants at garden shops, but i have watched pictures about very nice plants, example red leaves and other species than S.podyphyllum. My question is, where i can buy seeds? I havent found good web shop? Can anybody help? Other question is which species of Amorphophallus i can grow in room temparature at all year? As indoor plant?

James Stevens Posted December 20, 2012 Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 Amorphophallus Konjac or Albus are both relatively easy and might be worth a try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gardenofeden Posted December 20, 2012 Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 I will have loads of A.konjac tubers in spring when I repot which you are welcome to for postage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tropicbreeze Posted December 23, 2012 Report Share Posted December 23, 2012 I have Syngonium growing wild over my place, it's a weed here. Mostly podyphyllum. They produce lots of flowers but I've never seen them set seed, for which I'm glad. It depends what you call "room temperature" but lot of Amorphophallus should be okay. Most go dormant in the colder months so if kept dry and insulated there's no problem. If you want one that will keep growing year long then the closest I know is A. titanum. But for it it's better that temperatures never get below about 15C and are up in the mid 20's most of the time. I have one now growing 3 years without dormancy, but others that have gone for a full year and 2 years without dormancy. It seems to be variable.

tom499 Posted December 23, 2012 Report Share Posted December 23, 2012 Stephen beat me to it. I also have an ever growing collection of A. konjac bulbs I'm trying to give away. The main bulb is slowly getting bigger, but it keeps throwing out multiple small bulbs year on year. Many end up on the compost heap. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deborah Posted November 30, 2013 Report Share Posted November 30, 2013 Nooo, don't throw them out! Swap them with me I have Arisaemas that I'd be happy to exchange for your Amorphophallus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
