Title: Arisaema nepenthoides
Post by: Stephen Vella on October 16, 2013, 09:59:43 PM

Hello,

Was wondering if anyone had Arisaema nepenthoides seed to spare? Was allways facinated by this species and its one Ive never seen.

cheers
Stephen

It's in flower now at Dunedin Botanic Gardens but for some reason is labelled as A. exappendiculatum! I keep meaning to bring this to the Curator's notice each year and keep forgetting. Unfortunately, those currently in flower - there will be more - have their backs to the footpath and I'd better not step round in front of them. Will try again in a week or so.

Dear Lesley, I wonder if those Arisaemas you mention by the footpath have their backs or their fronts to the sun
