2024

2 March volunteered at the Alpine Garden Society Spring Show and Plant Fair at Chelmsford Racecourse. There I came across a Nursery selling surprise, surprise Arisaema.
There was a box of 18 unnamed ones going cheap. You can tell by the numbers that there are 21 other identified Arisaema which I also bought as a job lot in 2023. One of them turned out to be A. sikokianum. Also bought 4 nepenthoides. I did place two of the latter in peat free compost to see how they do.

The following nine were bought from Harts Nursery. They were not named but clearly are speciosum. Which one remains to be seen.
