Re: [Aroid-l] Anthurium ID

From: Tom Croat <Thomas.Croat at mobot.org> on 2014.11.03 at 18:22:54 Dear Don:   This plant is Anthurium section Porphyrochitonium and probably represents a new species since that section is more than half undescribed.  What is Olbrich Gardens?  Do they have plants of known origen.  Please try to find out more about the origin of the plant. The section ranges from Nicaragua to Peru but most members of the section are in western Colombia and Ecuador. A few species occur east of the Andes, especially in the north of Peru. Only a few species range into the lowland Amazon.   Tom   From: aroid-l-bounces@www.gizmoworks.com [mailto:aroid-l-bounces@www.gizmoworks.com] On Behalf Of Don Martinson Sent: Sunday, November 02, 2014 9:49 PM To: aroid-l@gizmoworks.com Subject: [Aroid-l] Anthurium ID   I saw this anthurium today at the Olbrich Gardens in Madison, WI.  It wasn’t labeled.  Can anyone suggest an ID?  I’m wondering if the yellow berries are in any way diagnostic. The variegated leaf in the second photo doesn’t belong to the infructescence. -- Don Martinson    Milwaukee, Wisconsin --_000_442112D3D8737B41868F544B2D822F877C63E99CMBGMail02moboto_-- --===============8041997816634219385==
