It was a small plant, but had a pup coming. I had it in the garage with several others. The leaves were toast on it from the cold in the garage! About a week later, the whole thing just collapsed, probably because I gave it a little drink earlier. I saved the corm and put it in dry storage, but it doesn't look too promising. This species really can't take much cold at all, and probably isn't worth trying in cooler climates like mine (7a). Even in Orlando, it loses its leaves when temps fall below 40F, and is among the last species to return from the ground in the Spring. Oh well, there are plenty more out there worth trying!
