Aroid-L Digest, Vol 40, Issue 13

From: Gareth.Hambridge at rbgsyd.nsw.gov.au (Hambridge Gareth) on 2007.11.11 at 21:46:45(16689) Hi folks, just wondering if anyone on the list has any idea of what this plant is. A friend of mine took this photo of it in the Philippines recently. http://s72.photobucket.com/albums/i169/gareth_04/?action=view¤t -06-4-TrekkingupAplayapeakonMtHal.jpg cheers Gareth +More Email: gareth.hambridge at rbgsyd.nsw.gov.au -----Original Message----- Message: 1 Date: Sat, 10 Nov 2007 11:59:04 -0600 From: "ExoticRainforest" Subject: Re: [Aroid-l] Aroid Literature To: "Discussion of aroids" Message-ID: <008b01c823c3$623981f0$6401a8c0 at AthlonLE> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Hey Ed! Don't worry about annoying me! I just take the photos and annoy everyone else on the list by asking them. That's how we all learn. There are some honest-to-goodness experts on this forum, in my opinion: world class. Me, I'm still very much a student. Besides, I have learned quite a bit by trying to help you track down some of your plants. But if you post them here you'll get those answers a lot quicker! Steve Lucas ----- Original Message ----- From: edleigh To: Discussion of aroids Sent: Wednesday, November 07, 2007 2:40 AM Subject: [Aroid-l] Aroid Literature G'day, I am fairly new to Aroid l, I have been reading posts and trying to take it all in to be honest. I haven't been into aroids for that long, but I am quite passionate about them. I've got the "bug" so to speak. I was wondering if anyone could recommend a good all round book on aroids so I don't have to annoy people like Steve L for identification etc all the time. I don't trust a lot of the information on non scientific sites on the internet. Any advice would be appreciated.

From: botanist at malesiana.com (Peter Boyce) on 2007.11.12 at 07:58:40(16694) An Amorphophallus but you'll need to get Wilbert to see it; my guess is a new species.

From: hetter at xs4all.nl (Wilbert Hetterscheid) on 2007.11.16 at 06:18:37(16702) Yep, an Amorphophallus. Your friend also sent me this picture and a few additional ones. Most likely an undescribed one. He is going back to find it again and retrieve more information because he made no pix of the naughty bits inside the spathe. Without that a more accurate identification is impossible.
