- Aroid garden tour September 2023 - A final tour of the Aroid Garden as we prepare for winter.
I have been an Aroid lover for years now but only in recent years did I start building up my outdoor Aroid collection. I started this particular version of my garden in the Summer of 2022 and this video gives you an idea of progress by September 2023.

Literally goals! Love your garden, much love!
for such a small space that is a large variety!
5:18 looks like the leaf of a crocosmia, can be wrong though.
Really glad to have come across your channel. I've adored some of the less common outdoor aroids from far, watching channels such as Leafing Around (Malaysia-based), not daring to think some of those plants can survive here. But now I am totally intrigued and interested to see which unusual aroids I can grow outside in the next season. Thank you for sharing what is possible. Do you overwinter them all indoors? Or are there hardy types that can remain outside?
Hey Claud. So there’s a good mix of Aroid Genus that mean you can keep things going through as well as the dormant cycle one that you already now about. So, like you, most of my Colocasia. Alocasia and Xanthosoma with come in is plants or get chopped and stored like a Musa. Pink China, Gaogongensis, some hybrids and my Metalica all go down at first frost and get munched. They all do fine in the ground. Most Arum are up all winter and Autumn dormant so they give me ground cover when everything else is resting. Pinellia, Ariopsis, Remasutia all lost to the first herd frost then go dormant but I lift any that are not in the ground. Pots turn to mush with Winters like last year. Sauromatum all go down in October and most survive in the ground. Amorphophallus go down now whether they are inside or not and really like their resting time.
Amorphophallus are my favourite but they often takes years to get to flowering. Well worth the wait. MY FAVOURITE are Arisaema and they all need the dormancy rest. If they don’t get a long enough growing season the new tuber can be small than the last season and that can set you back.
