I have consistently gotten the best survival with these arums by
leaving the tuber completely dry and in a cool place until they start to
sprout. This even includes the tropical ones like the titan.

Due to our rainfall, I have rotted out the tuber of this plant more
times than I care to count and had seedlings die off. I put a tuber in
a 2 gallon pot about a month ago, and set it next to plants in the
garage which are waiting for spring.
Should I water this tuber or just let it sit in the pot waiting for
spring watering? Or will it tell me what to do?
