Dear Tom:

This is going to be described as Schismatoglottis clivemarshii, in tribute to the Clive Marsh, who was instrumental in establishing the Danum Valley Conservation Area in Sabah, to where this species in endemic. Clive, who was a personal friend, died of shortly before his fiftieth year from complications of tic-born encephalitis.

Yes, we have it in cultivation, in several of its different blade patternings.

Dear Pete: My sentiments on some of the non-Aroid-L sites. What a lovely Schismatoglottis. I hope you can get it into cultivation. Was is some sort of a obligate edaphic form that won=E2=80=99t grow well out of its niche?

Steve and all... I for one would be delighted to see Aroid-L with a new lease of life - the sheer quantity of "messages" I get when posting anything on FB has led me to being very selective, not to say the annoyance of trying to re-find a post that only moments earlier was on the screen but is now buried under a mass of images of peoples' food interspersed with persistent adverts for incontinence products.

Anyhow... in the vein of sharing... here is a nice dwarf Schismatoglottis we are in the process of describing for inclusion in the next Aroideana.

Pictures are definitely allowed.
I would ask that people not post a 20MB image file, since there are still many people without fast Internet (and since that's far larger than necessary) but the days of asking people to resize their pictures down to the point where it's hard to see anything are - I hope - behind us.
Post away!

As some of you might know, I import plants from Thailand from time to time (with the proper paperwork, of course) and a recent acquisition has me stumped.
These are called Variegated Zamioculcas - but the petiole has the kinks that Gonatopus do. Is there some kind of new Zamioculcas species floating around that hasn't hit the mainstream market yet? The leaflets are heavily splashed with creamy variegation, and are slender and more elongated.
I'm happy to share a picture if we are allowed?
