  [Aroid-l] Anthurium hookeri -Melbourne

Hi Jeremy,
Your pictures look just like anth. wagnerianus, which seeds itself with purple berries having white bases. A nice veiny leaf. Do take a picture of the new leaf before it uncurls. True hookeri will have just one curl, one side wrapped around the other. All pachyneurium types will have two curls, with each side wrapped around itself, like a figure 8 in cross section. I find it too hard to remember if convolute or involute means 1 or 2 curls. So, if your plant has 2 curls, it is probably wagnerianus.
