Tubers fans,
as ever was asked after a rubric for ebay listings, I've put together several searches on ebay - it active offers displays and the latest first...
More article sites are recorded, the more will it of course...
In case of other genres, it is sometime quite much and confusing...
For sale on ebay from Amorphophallus following instructions, a possibly protect to buy something that isn't there.
Who titanum at ebay or want to buy other, rare Amorphophallsarten, should be sure somewhat cautious for good reason, some caveats.
1 The Kultubedigungen get acquainted; here in the Forum, in other forums or on the net.
As example learns that titanum probably German spring to autumn in the garden is not cultivable and the rest period not dry and cool be held at can.
2. Via google search for images of the transfrontier nature
When offered the kind with stunning images from the Web that are also protected by copyright, I ask myself whether the provider has the permission of the use of the image. A demand for the copyright holder is often revealing.
3. If the supplier ask for further images of own flowers, the blade or the blade shaft!
That you can with reliable images on the net then compare (just reliable sources, E.g.
www.aroid.org or
http://www4.ncsu.edu/~alan/plants/aroids/amorphophallus/ ) or set in forums and get the opinion of experienced collectors.
4. The provider to ask whether a seedling or a Cormel is offered.
If eg titanum or gigas a Cormel is offered, you can assume that the provider doesn't know that these types do not Cormels.
5. The provider to ask where the seeds or its mother plant.
For further suggestions/hints to the Amorphpophalluskauf on ebay there sure is.
Noted still, that no one is immune, having bought seeds or tubers under a false label of art and continues to sell these. This can happen unfortunately.
