I mentioned before that we are trying to form a local bay area group
interested in aroids. I presume the members of this wiki would lean
toward the tuberous forms like Ariaema, Arum, Amphorphallus, etc. but
we'll cover the whole range. The first meeting will be held at the UC
Botanical Garden in Berkeley at 1pm Sunday March 8 and all are welcome:
paid parking (the lot does not belong to Garden) but otherwise free (no
admission charge). For those who attend such meetings to acquire
interesting new plants, in addition to what is already available at the
Garden, several attendees have indicated that they will bring material
from their collection. We will also offer a tour of the Garden
collection with a peek 'behind the scene'. A website has even been
created at http://www.aroid.org/westcoast/.
Everyone welcome.
