Hi , just saw your post. I bought a mangy one from waldecks at a hideous price so as to be sure of product. It lost its leave( they said that was ok) and now when I checked the root has no tuber and looks as if its been dead for a while . really want to grow this plant and was wondering if you still have some ? I also live in the southern suburbs of Perth. Kathie
