Re: [Aroid-l] Alocasia macrorrhiza or odora

From: "Peter Boyce" peterboyce at myjaring.net> on 2004.12.28 at 21:51:26(12509) Hi Asit The naturalized Alocasia in FL is macrorrhizos (indica = macrorrhizos). The give away for macrorrhizos is that there is no 'ledge' of tissue in the leaf sinus (the open part between the lobes of the arrow-head-shaped leaf) Pete +More ----- Original Message ----- To: "Discussion of aroids" Sent: Tuesday, December 28, 2004 5:19 PM Subject: Re: [Aroid-l] Alocasia macrorrhiza or odora Eric Thanks for sharing. Never seen a naturalized A Macrorrhiza in a swamp. There are many A Indica specimens growing wild around here but not a single A Macrorrhiza. Asit K.

It is growing naturalized in a nearby swampy area. There are 2 big patches of this Alocasia. What is the main differences between the 2 species?
