Anthurium trinerve

From: "Geoffrey Kibby (IIE)" <G.KIBBY at cabi.org> on 1997.09.17 at 16:40:18(1258) Dear all, 4 more packages of seed are going out today and I think that fulfils everybodys requests,27 in total, if you asked me for seeds and do not receive a package within the next week or so do let me know and I will try again. With the vagaries of the various countries postal systems (I got requests from as far afield as Taiwan, New Zealand, Paris etc) it would not be surprising if one or two went astray. Early feedback from recipients suggests 100 percent germination! Certainly my own sowing of these seeds is now about 1/2 inch high and growing really strongly. I returned from a brief trip to Amsterdam last weekend and 'lo and behold', guess what I saw in the famous flower market there, yup, you guessed it, A. trinerve! So it seems that someone in Europe at least is growing and distributing this plant (my original plant came from Stockholm, Sweden). If you have never been to Amsterdam and can get there do make the effort, there is a beautiful Botanic Garden attached to the Free University with a wonderful aroid collection plus many other exotics. Hans Hvissers who is one of the specialists there (he writes to this list also) is doing great work in propagating and disseminating aroids and I am sure will be happy to see you. We desperately need gardens like this one, it relies entirely on donations and grants unlike the bigger national gardens in many countries and yet does pioneering work in conservation and dissemination of species. My thanks to Hans for a wonderful visit. Regards to all, Geoffrey Kibby +More International Institute of Entomology 56 Queen's Gate London, SW7 5JR Tel: 0171-584-0067 e-mail: g.kibby@cabi.org

From: "Nick Miller" <millern at wave.co.nz> on 1997.09.18 at 02:52:39(1259) Dear Geoffrey Just a brief note to advise you that the seeds arrived today 18th September. That's quick service. I will sow them in damp vermiculite in a heated prop box. Let me know if there is anything I can send to return the favour.

From: Wilbert Hetterscheid <hetter at vkc.nl> on 1997.09.18 at 13:29:39(1260) To Geoffrey & others, Anthurium trinerve is available in Holland indeed because it is produced by one of the largest Anthurium breeding outfits in the world, Anthura BV. The selection they sell has the cultivar name 'Antrio' and is marketed under it's trademark White Pearl. A second cultivar that was going to be introduced under the name 'Britt' turned out to be indistinguishable from 'Antrio' and was retracted.

From: Don Martinson <dmartin at post.its.mcw.edu> on 1999.04.02 at 03:35:48(3224) About 1.5(?) years ago, seeds of the so-called "blueberry anthurium" were offered here. It was subsequently ID'd as Anthurium trinerve. Unfortunately, I've lost the information on who generously offered the seeds. The link to the original picture was as follows: http://www.cas.usf.edu/~mansell/iasphoto/GKblue.jpg Anyway, I was fortunate to receive some seeds and to get them to germinate. The plant has grown slowly but surely on the windowsill above my sink. About 2 weeks ago, I took a closer look and lo and behold, a small infloresence was visible. You can see a photo at: http://www.execpc.com/~llmen/atrinerve3.jpg Does anyone recall the donor of these seeds?

From: Lester Kallus <lkallus at earthlink.net> on 1999.04.02 at 13:47:06(3226) I looked through the archives and see that the original message on "blueberry anthurium" came from Geoffrey Kibby on Aug. 15, 1997. There have been no posts from that particular email address since 1997 so I don't know if he's still a member of the listserver. (He may, of course, have changed his email address.)

From: GeoffAroid at aol.com on 2004.03.22 at 20:23:49(11323) Dear aroiders.... I thought I would repeat this request since it was slipped in the middle of another message last time and may have been missed by some, apologies if you have already read this.......some years ago I distributed a large number of berries/seeds of Anthurium trinerve to many of the members of this List (around 30 if I remember correctly). If anyone grew these on successfully and have seeds in return I would be very grateful, I have managed to kill off my parent plant (one of my very few Anthurium fatalities...) and of course did not grow on any seedlings of my own....It was one of my favourite plants and was always in flower and berry throughout the year. My new address is given below. Best wishes, Geoffrey Kibby +More 59 Southway Raynes Park London SW20 9JG
