Yes Carlo, Helicodiceros, Dracunculus vulgaris, and others that try to
grow in cool winter weather for me get zapped by bitter chills and get
smaller year to year. Thiswinter all my Arum leaves burned down,
including italicum. Happily a second flush of leaves comes in the
spring. Skunk cabbage always blooms in January.

The big test for me will be whether my Helicodiceros returns for its 3rd
consecutive year in Flemington?...

Despite the swings from teens at night to high 40 some days, Eranthis,

behind and are looking a bit burned. Hymenocallis in pot in basement
starting to grow. Habenaria medusae tuber still plump, whew, though
Arisaema nepenthoides tuber rotted away.
