Luc, I have found this to be a somewhat recalcitrant species in that it is slow and never demonstrates real vigor. I grow two different clones. Have not tried it outdoors yet but am growing it as a warm tropical subject in plenty of shade. I can't recall having flowered it. Outdoor cultivation (Los Angeles) might prove helpful. A better plant in my experience, also in the Convallariaceae, that comes from the same part of the world and recalls Tripladenia in overall aspect is Schelhammera multiflora. It produces starry white flowers on a bushy plant that has more vigor and is also rather slow. The new leaves are bronze-tinted. Unfortunately I lost it some years ago. I would exhort all members to keep an eye out for other plants in this family that remain obscure but are very worthy of cultivation, such as species of Tupistra, Gonioscypha and Peliosanthes. They are really not geophytes but evergreen perennials. Dylan On Feb 17, 2008 1:52 PM, <lucgbulot@aol.com> wrote: > Hi all, > > Many thanks to all who contributed to answer my former questions...
