[Aroid-l] Anthurium hookeri -Melbourne

From: gartenbaureisenberger at web.de (Helmut Reisenberger) on 2007.12.21 at 09:28:46(16847) Hi Don, As a European collector and commercial grower of a wide variaty of Anthuriums and other rare aroids, I once looked up Anthurium wagnerianus (or wagnerianum) in "Tropicos". I have got no result until I found out, the right taxom is "Anthurium wagenerianum". This might be of interest for you and all aroiders.

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. > > Don Bittel > > > > ----------------------------------------------------------------- > Date: Wed, 12 Dec 2007 10:32:35 +1100 > From: drplantman at gmail.com > To: aroid-l at gizmoworks.com > Subject: Re: [Aroid-l] Anthurium hookeri > > Hi Steve and Listers, > > From your descriptions (and not having done the proper ID work myself!) it sounds like we've got A. hookeri here at the Botanic Gardens Melbourne.

Shortly after I published that note Dr. Croat, Julius and Joep Moonen all checked my text and gave additional input. After close to 10 years of growing specimens I thought to be Anthurium hookeri, (or Anthurium hookerii, as they seem to love to spell it) I am amazed I've never discovered this discrepancy before. But, even more amazing, is all the information on the internet, and eBay, which continues to show and offer "Anthurium hookeri" with red berries and ruffled leaves. > > > > Steve Lucas > > ----- Original Message ----- > > From: Famille FERRY > > To: Discussion of aroids > > Sent: Saturday, December 08, 2007 4:04 AM > > Subject: Re: [Aroid-l] Anthurium hookeri > > > > > Hello Steve, > > > > I know very well David Scherberich because he determined a lot of plants for the botanical garden of Nancy.
