Colocasia gaoligongensis?

From: Deni at yaxhampark.co.uk (Deni Bown) on 2007.09.27 at 14:02:05(16347) Please could you post this on Aroid-l. Robin has tried but had no luck. We have been in communication about this species and as I couldn't help, I suggested he try the big wide world of aroiders. Many thanks, Deni Bown +More ________________________________ From: Robin Bell [mailto:kneel at st-chad.demon.co.uk] Sent: 24 September 2007 19:06 To: Deni Bown Subject: Fw: Colocasia gaoligongensis? ----- Original Message ----- From: Robin Bell To: aroid-l-bounces at gizmoworks.com Sent: Monday, September 24, 2007 8:18 AM Subject: Fw: Colocasia gaoligongensis? ----- Original Message ----- From: Robin Bell To: aroid-l-bounces at gizmoworks.com Sent: Friday, September 14, 2007 10:21 PM Subject: Colocasia gaoligongensis? We grow this Colocasia in UK. It seems hardy to about -8C. Maximum height [out doors] is 1 meter [3 ft]. It has been identified as Colocasia esculenta 'Illustris' through the ID board here, but I don't think it is. The appendix is vestigial, and the junction of the tube and spathe is barely constricted. A Chinese key gives C.gaoligongensis. Any thoughts? Chad. ________________________________________________________________________ This e-mail has been scanned for all viruses by Star.
