Hola Mario!!!! We have grandiflora here at teh gardens but are yours wild collected? If so I could use some seed with the field data that you have. We have a...
Dear Alain - Merci bien mon ami. I appreciate it very much and I look forward to it. Best wishes and let me know what I can do for you! Best wishes and...
Hola Mario, Could you please send me some of the grandiflora seed, too? I have Saruma henryii seed, and an abundance of A. fimbriata seed to share at this...
Hello, When the Aristolochia pods mature, eventually they drop from the vine. Are the seeds ready then? What does anyone know about this? There's probably a...
Hi Barbara, in most species of Aristolochia, at least the Neotropical ones, the pods do not drop from the plant when mature. As a matter of fact I donīt know...
Hi Mario, I sent of the Wodyetia seeds earlier this week to your Costa Rica address. There is just a small nagging idea in my mind that they will be...
Hello Mario, I've only been growing A. littoralis long enough to see pods. On those Aristos, when the pods dry, so do the pedicels, and the pods drop to the...
Hi Barbara, the pod-dropping sounds like fruit abortion, though maybe the seeds are reasonably mature already. Do the fruits dry and open up before they fall? ...
Barbara/Mario, My experience is the same as Mario', that is, the pods stay on for a very long time and open as he describes and without much wind, the seeds...
Hello all, Thank you Greg, Khew and Cory for all of your input on A. ringens in Asia. It was informative to me, apparently ringens does have merit as a...
Barbara, I have results from the A. littoralis seeds you sent me. I started 50 seeds from each group July 20. They are starting to germinate today. I have...
What a funny-sounding subject title this is! Yes, the pods usually open so the carpels are separate before they drop (or get knocked off), but I've never seen...
Hi all, I know, it has nothing to do with the topic but.. I'd like to show you a seed that I've just lend to a friend in the occasion of a seeds exibition in...
Hello Russ, Thanks for the update! It is very interesting that the better germination is from the seeds that were still in closed carpels, and that the pods...
Yes, going dormant doesn't make sense with Aristolochia seeds. We are at 18 to 2 right now, pods on the plant and pods fallen off the plant respectively. I had...
Hi Maurice; I have read this email several times and I do have plant of what is called A. acuminata and also plant of A. tagala ( several locations) and have...
Hello Mauro; My name is Greg Watson. I am in Thailand and am trying to source some Aristolochia as well as other plants and people for that matter! Are you...
Steve: Just some more information. I have now found larvae of the aristo's on ringens ( live and well) but elegans by far attracts the female to it for...

Maurice, I'll send you the Saruma seeds on Monday. Thanks for your research on the names tagala vs. acuminata. Can you similarly explain which is correct,...
Hi Mario and all, Mario I would love seeds of A. grandiflora if there are any left. I have you on my list for A. californica for when they mature in Oct. ...
Hi Mario and all, The A. californica seed capsules also open at the bottom and are sticky. That's why I try to get them just in time. Sometimes I put...
Hi all, I'm at home for a few hours before leaving again-I'd like to send my regards to everybody Mario, sorry for reading that you haven't received my seeds;...
Hi Lucia, no, you have not made a mistake. If you sent the seeds to my address in Florida they are most likely there already; I have been in Costa Rica for...
