Hi Simone,.

I think you can cultivate similar such as Lysichiton, i.e. oversee, nutritious, swampy soil. Deni Brown an attitude in pots is not possible, however, I have seen already healthy plants in 12 x 12 cm deep pots; for the first couple of years like this be possible, later they need sure a sunken container for Mason as a root.
The site can be probably partial shade to sunny; that these gewächse as marsh plants should never dry out is self-evident.
Still, I have can heard that adult plants are not umgetopft to where this safely to a culture in the free soil was involved.
I find this kind simply class despite all adversity & am each year in the Botanical Garden when they begin to blossom:-)
Much success to!

Regards Michael

Hi Simone!

Wow, where is there this plant to buy? I'm very excited about and press the thumbs ever!
I have even none, they know only from the BoGa here, since they are already smaller than the Lysichiton, but also Tiefwurzler - a lily basket is surely not a bad idea.
I would keep this way by the way only marshy or in very shallow water, don't think but also that they are sensitive in this regard....
Did you know that the flowers have included a heater? They melt so that through the snow and make sure that also in cold weather you annoy...Aroma is distributed. If you still don't know the "Aroids" book I like to can you mail that page.

Many greetings!

Michael

Stink-cabbage fans

I got ten seeds from the United States, of which 9 after storage in damp Sphagnum have become the same mushy - the last of the Mohicans lying around for weeks now and won't move.

Long it just only needs the way a cold treatment for germination?

Happy growing, Bernhard.

Hi Bernard,.

I have my seeds from Canada. I get 2014 late in the autumn, potted up and dug up the pots outdoors.
Allegedly, they need a 3-month-period of cold weather. The snow is gone now but still does nothing. I think it's still too early, we have more night frost.

Should one manifests be interesting plant that so much heat generated in the spring, that the blanket of snow all around melts away so she can start the flowering - it was from Canada. I am curious.

If something in the field germinate I'll report.

Many greetings
Phillip

Hi Phillip,

Thanks for the Info; then I should be the last of the Mohicans possibly still in the fridge...

To the fact that the plant actively melts the snow to the shoots, google has aunt pictures by the way...

Happy waiting, Bernhard.

Hi Bernard,.

I had the same experience as you. However, mine arrived after over two months of United States. There, the Customs has probably lazy. Were mouldy and mushy, thus to the Grioßteil. They were, by the way of ebay.

In nature the tuber digs a well deeper from year to year, which facilitates a pot position not just, but it is Hardy.

The seeds came 2014 "Gardens North Seed", Kirsti Walek, Canada, www.gardensnorth.com.
There were silver round large seeds (such as silver bullets that you the vampires do used ). by 2015 there was nothing to see, so some seeds have dug out. You were no longer around, rather irregularly swollen and had a yellow/white color. Silver shells remains I also found skin thin. Back to the Earth, and in October the bucket were excavated again.

Winter 2014/15: warm, rainy, wet snow =_> nightmare of winter lovers.
Winter by 2015/16: at the beginning of no snow cover and in January a 3 where cold spell with temperatures about 20 degrees, then the snow came.
After two winters in the potato field, 70-80% of the seeds germinated in may 2016.
Conclusion? a good cold treatment need the seed to germinate?

In the picture, the seedlings have a size of 10... 20 cm. A bucket has drainage holes in the bottom, the other not - there is no difference to see. The plants grow slowly in my opinion and see how weed (Plantago major) from. We had two 5... 10 days warm periods in May/June with temperatures to about 24... 25 C degrees, then you could see properly how the plants have become greater every day. And I thought a plant which penetrates through a blanket of snow to bloom, calls for no high temperatures. HM... on the other hand, my Eranthis hyemalis just behave, only when the heat comes, the leaves are large.

When I read the copy I mean that the plants grow not as compact as the text describes. Perhaps it is a long day with many light.

Congratulations, Phillip!

I had once again get seed from the United States last fall and moist and with and without fungicide treatment in the refrigerator for the cold treatment.
In the spring, all on a seed were then rotting - it was only yellow mucus in the seeds...

Sowing in a bucket outdoors seems to me a good way to be.

Happy growing, Bernhard.

Hi Symplocarpus interested,

a short note: On ebay seeds of Symplocarpus are offered currently foetidus.
The provider sits in Ireland, has 100% positive reviews, and the seeds look really fresh and real.
He offers 5 seeds for BP 5.00 (= EUR 5,86), + Porto BP 1.50 (= EUR 1.76). I found this pretty damn cheap, so I bought immediately a portion of seeds (there are now 3 servings available).
I'm curious to see how quickly the seeds here arrive, but Ireland is not so far.

Many greetings,
ADA

Hello ADA,.

Thanks for the note - after I have bought also a portion, only a portion is available...

Happy sowing, Bernhard.

...und has now a new owner.
Thanks again for the note of ADA.

Many greetings
Ortwin

I also thank you for the note.

From tonight there again here even in the Rhineland Frost (is correct but rather rare here), and exact match the seeds of Symplocarpus arrived because also this morning foetidus:

index.php? page = attachment & attachmentID = 3195

index.php? page = attachment & attachmentID = 3196

index.php? page = attachment & attachmentID = 3197

The seeds look good. I just seeded it, put everyone in an own pot, and a metal shelf (against hungry shrews and their ilk, which come up there). And then of course chicken wire against hungry Blackbirds (both species find in my garden by the way enough different fodder).
I filled water into the tub, it will go off in the Earth, and now the Frost can come! Let's see what happens.

Many greetings,
ADA

Hello ADA,.

a nice design against the predators...

I wonder whether this is so good with thick permafrost, to leave the pots so freely.
Yes sure above you saw Olvis method on the thread.
I will try both vermutlic.

Good luck and I would be happy to read further.

Happy growing, Bernhard.

Hi Bernard,.

I know.... but here in the Rhineland, because you never know if there is some degree of frost, if it is not the last frost of winter. Are now in two nights with-5 ° c., tomorrow is the only day minus degrees should prevail where during the day 1-2, from the day after tomorrow, it is again in the lower Rhine winter normal temperature by 4-5°C plus. So I don't want to talk of thick permafrost there, I think the seeds should feel really Frost in the two following nights, if he is there.

I did no good experiences with the movement of seeds near the bottom, I had to get Peony seeds from a wild species in Oregon who are of course also Frostkeimer, and had left a secured into the ground the dish with chicken wire - with the result that I found later only the empty shells of seeds, the seeds had been just as thick and bold as now the Symplocarpus seeds , and the Spitzmäuschen were simply crawled through the chicken wire.

I could make the seed pots in my unheated greenhouse, but you're the problem sometimes with mold on the surface of the Earth, so they come in only if it is necessary once again to the-10 ° C.

It is always an experiment with the seeding, I look forward to the different experience reports here,

many greetings,
ADA
