I never had any trouble with O. triangularis in Tucson. We shall see how it handles my small shady corner in Yuma! Interestingly, it was perfectly hardy in Denton in north-central Texas, where it would freeze solid. The only problem was the fungus that would disfigure the leaves from midsummer on until frost.

Somehow I lost the plant during my move to Portugal, although not completely, there was a purple leaf in the pot of another plant. Like Mary Sue wrote, it hardly ever goes dormant and then sometimes it does. When it dries down naturally the rhizomes have always re-sprouted easily with me but they can die from desiccation if kept dry for too long. It may only have a very short dormancy naturally. I suppose it might die if dried off before it is ready to go dormant by itself. Under my growing conditions in Germany I never found it sensitive to heat but of course it is not the heat of Arizona. Bye for today Uli _______________________________________________ pbs mailing list pbs@lists.pacificbulbsociety.net http://lists.pacificbulbsociety.net/cgi-bin/… _______________________________________________ pbs mailing list pbs@lists.pacificbulbsociety.net http://lists.pacificbulbsociety.net/cgi-bin/…
