Dear Ellen;
Can't fill your fantasies, but did get seed from NARGS seed
exchange listed as "A. triphyllum "Variegatum" with two sources: Louis
Myers, Hawley, PA and William Dress, Ithaca,NY. Any chance you know
either/both and what is the "Variegatum' part?
If they weren't all planted, I gladly share a few- look for
seedlings if and when.
If fantasizing, I'd like to get one with a pure white spathe and
the wildly clean white splashed foliage. Dream on.
Jim W.

In the '93 Nargs list was the same seed from Myers (address then Brooklyn). I
got it and am growing on all 3 seeds. Last summer noted that the leaves of
one of the plants appeared similar to the 'Mrs. French' variety, with
accentuation of the veining pattern, but nothing that I would call
"variegated".

Ellen, Professor Dress is a friend of Nina's (he translated the Latin
description of A. bockii for me last year), so you should be able to get the
lowdown on his plants. I don't know of anyone ever describing a variegated
leaf form of A. triphyllum. What about it, Guy? Ray? Roy?

Jim McClements - as it happens, I called Bill Dress this afternoon to
ask about this plant. As you said, it doesn't sound exactly stunning;
he described it as having yellow shading around the main leaf veins,
and not very pronounced at that. Sounds a bit chlorotic, really.
I'll try to get to Ithaca (only 2 hrs) to see it when it leafs out,
and will take some pictures if I do.
