BOY...what a mouthful...aka Monkey Tail Plant. Fresh seeds harvested 1/10/09
Lovely ground cover plant under hostas and ferns. I have yet in all the years I've been growing these,have found very little info so following is from my experince.
Light shade,humusy,moist but well drained soil. Small ovately heart-shaped leaves(if that makes sense)of pale minty green foliage w/ metallic sheen,ocacsionaly tinted w/ pink. Blooms late winter in my greenhouse. Bloom spikes are brown and look like small skinny monkey tails that are interesting but I mainly grow them for the foliage. Easy from seed. Picture can be found in my seed starting journel. I was unable to copy and paste it to this post.
I am looking for aristolochia seeds "other than":
a.clematitis
a.elegans
a.frimabit(sp?)
a.galeata
a.tomentosa
