I had forgotten still quite OK.
I'm am considering whether I may to pinch off the flower bud, to save the tuber. Since flowering and fruit costs much strength naturally.

Whether that affects the bulb?

Hello Ernie,.

Why would the flower pinch off because...
Hey, as she flowers ever - let it yet!

Look forward to a picture!

Greetings
Tom

Hi TomTom,.

but, I wrote that I wanted to save the tuber with fact, because the leaves not very well more from seeing.

Greeting
Ernie

Also have you ever had in the pot, because the leaves looked even modest - flowering was then but wonderful!
This was actually weakened after flowering, and has not flourished the year on it!
Well, I wanted to see at that time simply be sure blooming.
Your should see something like that then...

So I must now also times report.

Already a DRAC Verflixt, is 2 times with me in recent years. Vulgaris tuber rots. I had used always when starting bud and first signs of roots into a large saucepan with amorphophallustauglichem substrate and minimal glove.
As I said 2 times rotten.

This year I have treated the tubers as well as they looked really spotless and vigorously. The expulsion was at least each 15 cm high and there were already many roots. Security there this time even coal meal with in the pot.
But after 3 days I noticed that the drives no longer grew further. So get out of the pot.
And: roots, dead plant and rescued seemingly gaaaanz just before onset of putrefaction.

Then did nothing for a month at all. A few involucral bracts are dried up and that's it.

I thought to myself. OK, if they do not want the goofy tubers come simply in the garden. That was 2 weeks ago.
And behold there. The shoots wchsen while still not, but in the careful to buddeln strong root growth should be noted and the shoots have become at least much thicker.

I am now really at a loss. It can not be yet, that a tuber in almost sterile substrate tract gammelt and out there with all the bugs and especially torrential rain the last few days well don't grows.

Someone made has of you similar experiences?

I kultiviere that now in any case only still out there. I just hope that I have too much delayed by the late Auspflanzen time not growth.

Hello Rooman,

What was the temperature at the pot culture?

I've seen vulgaris a D. on Monday in the "Kanarenhaus" of the mountain Garden in Hanover, which was about 2 m high; the flowering stem was even higher and unfortunately the bud was so difficult that it is canceled.
I was not clear that the soooo great.

MfG,
Bernhard.

So the Temp. was normal room temperature. So from 16 ° C at night to 23 ° C during the day.
Perhaps too warm?
Out there, it's mom. colder at night and during the day of the open ground in the bed heats up very quickly and strongly.

Hello Rooman,

then I type on the temperature.

It is very warm, but you would have to measure once in the soil at a depth of 25 cm.

MfG,
Bernhard.

Hello Rooman,

what not so everything is there on the net...

Hi Erwin,.

Yes, I think it could be the high temperature or the very high difference between day and night temperature if you look at the temperatures during the day 1 and 30 cm depth.

MfG,
Bernhard.

Hmmm. That all sounds very plausible. I had up to now still no luck with Arisaemas.
Maybe I should try the garden culture. This seems to be somewhat more the whole thing. In the meantime, more have been with only no tubers. Because I will need to order probably times anywhere supplies. ;-)

Hello together,
It should be as far as the next few days,
My Draculunculus vulgaris flowers on.

the beginning of... here already

Is so funny, my D. vulgaris flower has exactly the same stage. May I ask whether you live in South or North Germany?

Greeting
Ernie

Mal ne quick question: you let the winter actually in the bottom of the garden? And, if so, what Wintertemps do you have for?

@ Ernie
Na clear, you may ask - I live in southern Germany, more precisely in Lower Bavaria!

@ schimanski
So I've buried the bulb 2 years ago in my rock garden (approx. 15-20 cm deep), it remains in it even in the winter.
Winter Yes this year somehow not really did exist. But last year snow in was about 1 m in winter.
In minus 15-20 ° C 2005 / 06 were there in winter ever, but was already a "insulating" layer of snow on the ground.

Greetings
Tom

Hi Tom Tom,.

I live in the North near sea level and thought always with you, it is above all night slightly cooler due to the high altitude, but the rolling spring makes that probably back up (about 3 weeks with you earlier).

Also think because there is more snow for you that gets even better it the tubers, as the mostly humid winter with us.

Still good luck.
Ernie

So, yesterday it was then so far!
the flower has opened up and you kan you enjoy with the eyes (and the Nase...lol)! :???:
