RE: [Aroid-l] Syngonium rayii

From: "Eduardo Goncalves" edggon at hotmail.com> on 2006.11.06 at 13:39:55(14793) Dear Harry and Tom, Syngonium auritum (at least the clones I have seen) are much more common growing and flowering at the ground than climbing in any support. Tom may have seen thousands of them in the field and probably I am reporting an unusual behavior in cultivation (or a strong tolerance for the absence of trees). +More Very best wishes, Eduardo.

Thanks so much for the information.
