I do know the name of the mother plant and was told the seeds would produce that plant.

- Biography
- I'm a formerly Canadian conservationist living in Ecuador; Lorax is my job description (I do actually speak for trees, most of them endangered or threatened.) I'm a plant nut, and try to grow everything I'm going to eat when at all possible. I also refuse to believe what anybody says about hardiness zones, and as such I'm often found trying to grow things that perhaps shouldn't be attempted where I'm living. For example, I'm currently trying to grow bananas at 3,000 meters of altitude, in a desert. I'm also trying Hops in the tropics; I get the feeling that if they'll ever sprout for me, I'll have a hard time controlling them. In Canada, I used to grow palm trees outdoors in USDA Zone 3a.
I edit, typset, and design an international magazine on Bananas (www.bananasquarterly.ec - insert shameless self-promotion here) and am a member of the International Aroid Society. I'm also a certified orchid freak, although my orchidarium is a bit sparse at the moment (I'm still trying to figure out what will survive at this altitude; the answer seems to be not a whole heck of a lot.)
