I have several aroids on my tradelist. I would love to expand my collection. I have access to several other varieties of Arisaemas through friendly nurserymen. I would be willing to purchase locally to trade for interesting aroids. the following is a list of aroids I can potentially offer for the right trade. Some items may appear on both lists because I have access to more seedlings or young plants, but I still want to increase my collection and acquire diverse forms. Here is a list of what I can offer for trade. I figure that waiting for dormancy in late summer would be prudent, lets get in touch now so we can all acquire some new fancy aroids. Here is what I can offer;
1. Arisaema flavum
2. Arisaema triphyllum
3. Arisaema Sikokianum
4. Arisaema ciliatum
5. Arisaema candidisimum
6. Arisaema tortuosum
7. Arisaema taiwanense
8. Arisaema speciosum
9. Arisarum proboscoides
10. Dracunculus vulgaris
11. Arum Italicum
12. And that Asarum native to Canada that is commonly called "Indian Ginger"
Now some of these same species I would trade to acquire if someone has a rare form e.i. A. taiwanense with the silver leafed pattern or any silver-leaved forms of Arisaema.
1. Arisaema ringens
2. Arisaema sikokianum especially the silver leaved forms
3. Arisaema griffithii
4. Arisaema nepenthoides
5. Arisaema heterophyllum
6. Arisaema fargesii
7. Arisaema costatum
8. Arisaema dracontum
9. Arisaema saenzoo
10. Arisaema amurense
11. Arisaema consanguineum
12. Arisaema franchetianum
13. Arisaema engleri
14. Arisaema dahaiense
15. Arisaema rhizomatum
16. Arisaema asperatum
17. Arisaema yunnanense
18. Arisaema serratum var mayebarae
19. Arisaema thunbergii subsp. urashima
20. Arisaema auriculatum
21. Arisaema bathycoleum
22. Arisaema kiushianum
23. Arisaema saxatile
24. Arisaema lingyunense

So suffice it to say that I am really interested in aroids, I will trade for any species I do not yet have. Thank you fo rtaking the time to look over my list.
Trading Arisaemas and other aroids
Hi Slipperman,
I was looking over your thread and saw a few aroids I have that you want, and vice verse. I have many silver leaved silk's for trade, as well as A. drac's ( they are very common here, so I never planted any until last year). I also have just traded for A. ringens which hopefully will flower this year. Also when travelling in NC a few years ago, I bought some trilliums from an old lady at a plant sale which she named as "NC red trilliums", turns out they are erect wakerobins reds's. They should be mature enough to divide rhizomes this summer. Also have 5 Spir. cernua odorata, 1 of which flowered last year; looks like it has 2 new planets growing aside the mother plant. All hopefully will flower this year.
If you want to trade A.'s and/or orchids (saw you have E. gigantea Serpentine nights) let me know. I also dabble in slippers, not as good as you. The temp's here are to warm in the winter. C. acaule grow wild in my woods, but all the rest are hard to grow. Have started with yellow, kentucky, showy, etc. Only the yellow and pink do well. I'm trying to complete a trade for C. macranthus (pretty sure on that one) and Dactylorhiza maculata (not so sure, "orchideer" is in Canada and our custom's dept. is not happy about across border trades). Have many talks on others, lots of people want cobra lilies and since my five mature one's produced hundreds of seeds, I should have atleast 200 sprouts this spring. Planted a group of 20 sik's in a 2' sq, two years ago that should all flower in April. Excited about that.
Hope to hear from you
