Helicodiceros muscivorus won't sleep
In oktober 2013 I bought on E-bay a Dead Horse Arum bulb. Kept it cold and dry. Januari 2014 to my surprise it has started to wake up and I placed it asap in a 2.5 ft deep pot indoors. From that time it started producing leaves and a inflorescense so moved it in march in full sun on a S.E. balcony.
When the blooming was at an end I placed the plant in june that year on a N.W. balcony with the idea that the plant would go dormant. Now, januari 2015 it is still producing leaves and a bud!
Temperature outside is somwhere between 0 and 7 degrees Celcius with a few nights with frost. Not really Mediterranen.
Pity I can't check the bulb now how much it has increased size.
Has anyone have the same experience with this very exciting aroid?
ps the smell when flowering was not as bad as described in literature. Maybe due to low temperatures at that time
Kind regards , Gijs
