Will do, thanks guys. Brian I actually purchased another Adora in Florida two months ago. So if they ever bloom at the same time, I'll definitely try it (By the way, they also had dozens of the B Williams type - first time I'd seen it). I had no idea I could mix other species with this plant either (guess I never thought about it), so I'll try that too if my other Upright blooms (I have no idea what type it is yet - got it as a bulb from the store). I think everything else I have is Colocasia. I'm guessing you can't mix those with Alocasia (do Colocasia even bloom?))

I've put all the seeds in a pot filled with vermiculite, sphagnum moss, and a light mix of soil at the very bottom (for roots when they reach that deep). I've put a plastic top on the pot to keep the humidity in (and it's working well). I also set the pot on my plant heating pad (which is warm, but by no means hot).

Thank you all again.
