[Aroid-l] Fw: Scindapsus

From: Steve at ExoticRainforest.com (ExoticRainforest) on 2008.04.01 at 15:53:19(17263) Sorry to talk back to myself, but I just found a photo of this plant on Marek's site noted as a cultivar of Philodedron hederaceum. Does anyone know if this is a cultivated plant or another wild form of P. hederaceum? Or something else?

Somehow I doubt that is a good name! If anyone knows what it truly is, please speak up! It appears more to me to be a Scinadpus but I am certainly not qualified to say.

A cutting was sent to me several years ago with no name. The thing I found very amusing this morning is many people on the internet think this species is the same thing as Epipremnum aureum. I found that claim on Dave's Garden, UBC, and Garden Web along with a bunch of pseudo-scientific websites. I'd like to do a page for my website so if any of you can let me know where to find a copy of the scientific description I'd appreciate the help. Thanks!
