[Aroid-l] Id please: Anthurium tissumi ???

From: webmaster at baumfarn.at (Baumfarn Webmaster) on 2007.11.10 at 18:02:23(16679) I've no idea. Before I only knew the *normal* Anthuriums in earth. I saved some seeds and planted them in cork. Probably I will have some additional plants in the future ;-) The seeds (like a miniature rice corn) develop a small leaf at the brighter side of their end and a first root at the darker side. And this is how they do their further growing: leafs always to the bright side and roots search dark spaces. Here you can see how the roots find their way behind the bamboo-wall: http://www.baumfarn.at/img_tmp/Anthurium%20spec%20medium%2000159.jpg greetings +More Peter edleigh wrote: >No idea, but what a great photo and a great plant!!
