Rhaphidophora To: Discussion of aroids Message-ID: Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" Dear Jude: I am still around, still working 80 hours a week at 80 and nothing has yet slowed down unfortunately. Ted Held, it was nice to hear your ?voice?. I hope things are well with you. I have embarked on a Revision of Stenospermation, a nifty genus that is now the least well known genus of its size, perhaps with 300 species. We already have nearly 100 species in our new Lucid Key to Stenospermation.

Rhaphidophora Hi guys! Thanks for coming out of the woodwork! I had no idea about Julius' death - that's a hole that won't be filled. Is Dr. Croat still around? Zach - Yes, I fell out of the loop when I created, built, and ran a nature based preschool with my own tropical jungle and nature center as part of it - I'm getting back into the loop of the whole plant thing. Look forward to getting all caught up with the goings-on! Thank you for the advice about my cuttings. If I do start seeing some rot, what can be done to salvage the cutting?

No one will be able to replace that guy. Ted Held Detroit On Mon, Aug 6, 2018 at 11:29 AM, The Silent Seed wrote: How many people are actually still on here? (That's a honest question.) What's the best way to root Rhaphidophora decursiva cuttings? I have them tightly wrapped in sphagnum moss at the moment, but don't want them to rot.

Is there some kind of new Zamioculcas species floating around that hasn't hit the mainstream market yet? The leaflets are heavily splashed with creamy variegation, and are slender and more elongated. I'm happy to share a picture if we are allowed?
