> Does anyone else grow [Walleria gracilis] or one of the other > species? I bought some Walleria gracilis seed from Silverhill in 2000, I believe. It has only been available once since then from Silverhill, I think. Five of about ten seeds sprouted that year. In future years there were 0-2 sprouts in the pot. Sprout location varied from year to year, so I imagined different tubers were growing or sleeping, as they saw fit. They never grew well. Maybe they got too cold? I have occasional frost. One late summer, about 6 years after planting, and after two seasons with no sprouts, I unpotted them. There were three slightly shriveled, but alive, tubers. I repotted into a very sandy mix. I have not seen sprouts since. I still water the pot every winter. Heisenberg's uncertainty principle, Schroedinger's cat, and what all. Leo Martin Zone 9? Phoenix Arizona USA
