  Re: [Aroid-l] Does anyone grow the real Anthurium hookeri?

Marek,
I guess, that without the berries it is not possible to tell if=A0a plant is the real A. hookeri. I have a plant bought as A. hookeri which shows all the features (scalariform veins, black punctuations), but its berries were not white (the pic of the infructescence can be seen here):
=A0
=A0
So it is a Holland hybrid :(
The good thing is, that the germination rate is nearly 100% and the berries can be stored for several days (a few weeks) without the seeds loosing their viability significantly. But I don't know if it applies to the species itself too.
