From: "Julius Boos" ju-bo at email.msn.com> on 2000.07.03 at 00:24:32(4958) Dear Debbie, 01 seems to me to be a juvinile plant of Syngonium polyphyllum, common as an escapee all over S. Florida, the leaves on an adult plant will be divided. I have seen adults in fruit here and there. 02 is a Philodendron sp., as is 03, someone better qualified than I am will take a stab at an id! I know of no single book that could serve as a perfect I.D. source, but this list IS the greatest! We have access to opinions and I.D.`s from THE best in the world at I.D.`ing rare and obscure Aroids! Just post a pic., and SOMEONE will know something about it! Come to the Aroid show at Fairchild Gardens in Sept. and get yourself a new Deni Bown Aroid book, and just SOAK in the presence of Tom Croat, Peter Boyce, Symon Mayo and Josef Bogner, some of THE best Aroid researchers in the world! Ask questions, get plants I.D.`d, see living Amorphollus titanum and others, IN THE FLESH! (or tissue??)
