>Dewey: This is an unpublished name and I will get back to the list
about the correct spelling (I have to consult the rules) but I just
wanted to say that this plant which I am sure that you have seen at
Selby has dramatically changed in the past year. For years it was
dwarfed (Donna Atwood thinks it was due to an overdose of something) but
when I saw it recently it was many times larger, with leaf blades to ca
25 cm long. I am sure glad I was patient on this new species!
By the way if we really want to talk about small aroids we do
have to consider Lemna. While currently in the Lemnaceae molecular work
has shown that group to be practically inseparable from Pistia and the
Kew group will be proposing it to be subsumed within the Aroideae as a
close relative of Pistia.

Tom & Dewey,
I believe the correct spelling should be Anthurium besseae, in honor of Libby
Besse.

Tom,
Which unpublished name are you referring too? The post and prior message
refer to several plants.

Carlo: The new species name that I was referring to was that of
Anthurium besseae Croat, a neat Anthurium sect. Cardiolonchium from
Bolivia which will be named in honor of Libby Besse in Sarasota.

Another small one that is on the "Totally Magnificient" side of the
Araceae.... Homalomena pygmae. I thionk that is the right spelling. Dark
red foliage top and bottom very small little inflorescenses that have
creamy white spadix. Not the smallest mentioned but at about foru to six
inches high... It is a real beauty! I picked up one at the IAS meeting
last night!

Tom,
Thanks for the clarification. It's interesting that it could at one point
look so small and suddenly put on a growth spurt. In my limited experience,
Anthuriums have been fairly steady growers.
