I see that 'King Phallus' has spoken with good words of wisdom, but I`ll take this oppor. to let everyone know that I have a rare plant (Amorphophallus, Taccarum or Dracontium sp.??) collected in N. Antartica or it may have been the N. Pole, I don`t remember which, it grows cold, and when it blooms it shoots red and green sparks up to 20 ft. high (6 m) like a roman candle instead of producing an actual bloom. The leaves (two at a time) which can reach 18 ft. tall, are metalic, and varegated in blue, red and white. As they develop they form patterns that look like erotic antique engravings. As soon as I can steal someone's pics off some other site I will post it. Opening offers please??? Julius +More >Hmmm, Well it's my picture anyway. I didn't know she was using it.

From: "Abrimaal Svartvinter" <abrimaal at o2.pl> on 2004.09.24 at 23:57:04(12225) This is nothing new, this plant is a new genus in Araceae, but scientists still argue if it should be in Araceae or its own family. It was described in 1390 B.C. Unfortunately I don't own this plant, but I have a drawing from the 19th century, you can steal the picture it from http://www.roberek.net/abrimaal/morph.jpg +More ----- Original Message ----- From: Julius Boos To: aroid-l@gizmoworks.com Sent: Friday, September 24, 2004 12:07 PM Subject: RE: [Aroid-l] Species id for plant on ebay?--new plant offer >From: "Enid" >Reply-To: Discussion of aroids >To: >Subject: [Aroid-l] Species id for plant on ebay? >Date: Thu, 23 Sep 2004 13:05:03 -0400 > Hello All, Buyers beware!
