Best, Marek HTML +More ----- Original Message ----- From: Marios Giannakoulias To: araceum@wp.pl Sent: Tuesday, July 06, 2010 7:30 AM Subject: Unknown Alocasia Hello, I have this Alocasia some years now, it is of unknown origin (found the plant in a friend's garden together with A. odora). Flowers resemble A. odora, but the spathe is more pointy towards its apex. The plant is upright, hardy, forms a "trunk" (much like A. odora, but faster for the same conditions). Leaf blade has a maximum length of 1 meter (3feet) in perfect conditions. Usually half of this. Nie znaleziono virusa w tej wiadomosci przychodzacej.

It looks to be a another manifestation of macrorrhizos (spadix appendix not wider than the male flower zone, spathe limb attenuate and not fornicate, sinus without leaf tissue.

From: "Marek Argent" <abri1973 at wp.pl> on 2010.07.15 at 01:48:48(21199) Dear friends, My first guess was simply A. macrorrhizos, but the problem was that I've never seen a real adult plant, that's why I forwarded the photos here instead of making a page in the ID Center. However Ms. LariAnn suggested A. brisbanensis and it made me doubtful. She's been working for many years with this genus, so I can only watch and learn.
