Re: [Aroid-l] Amorphophallus ID please

From: "Wilbert Hetterscheid" <hetter at xs4all.nl> on 2011.06.22 at 04:52:26 I think the red colour is the key to the probability that it is koratensis. I never saw red in proper paeoniifolius. Koratensis has more variation in colour than paeoniifolius.   Cheers, Wilbert   Van: aroid-l-bounces@gizmoworks.com [mailto:aroid-l-bounces@gizmoworks.com] Namens StroWi@t-online.de Verzonden: maandag 20 juni 2011 8:47 Aan: Discussion of aroids Onderwerp: Re: [Aroid-l] Amorphophallus ID please Hi  Wilbert! Nice to read some lines from you...... What made me frown were the dark purple spots on the petiole, let alone that I havn't seen too many different paeonifolius genotypes. @ Peter yes, I have heard of paeonifolius with smooth petioles; as far as I remember selections for agricultural use. Thank to all of you who replied so far! I'll forward your comments to the owner of the plant via our Amorphophallusforum. Happy growing, Bernhard. -----Original Message----- > Date: Fri, 17 Jun 2011 11:34:55 +0200 > Subject: Re: [Aroid-l] Amorphophallus ID please > From: "Wilbert Hetterscheid" <hetter@xs4all.nl> > To: "'Discussion of aroids'" <aroid-l@gizmoworks.com> > I would not discount paeoniifolius smooth, apart from the fact that smaller and younger plants of this species may be smooth and at a later age warty. The red colouration in it may also point to koratensis......... Often mistaken for paeoniifolius when in leaf.
