I am in CT zone6 I guess the conditions for its potential invasiveness tend to be more pronounced here in the PNW than elsewhere, but seeds fallen from the mother plant will eventually germinate and root readily under the same growing conditions. Allow the seeds to fully ripen (a deep coral-red) then direct sow in humusy, moisture rententive soil in part to full shade. Alternatively, propagation resources suggest storing the seeds in layers of moist sand in shade and sow as soon as radicles appear. They are not fast germinators - can take a year or more. pam - gardengal |

Are the seeds ripe? If not, will they still ripen disconnected from the roots?

I guess the next step would be to find out what someone over-run with
arums would want in swap from the east coast for a bucket of viable tubers. |
