Its an Aroid from Tropical East Africa and is not at all cold hardy.

Presumably to the conservatory. It shouldn't tolerate less than 10C but is noted as one of relatively few that can stand very high [neglected] temps. OTOH water it with limoncello and it would never feel the cold!! Best Wishes Brian. |

There's nothing like having first hand knowledge, eh Brian?
http://members.chello.at/norbert.and...as/index_e.htm I grow three different forms of the species outdoors in a shaded location during the summer but move them indoors before it gets too chilly. The species is native to Tropical East Africa and cannot tolerate freezing at all. "Brian" --- 'flayb' to respond wrote in message ... "Sacha" wrote in message .uk...
