[Aroid-l] Amorphophallus ID?

From: hetter at xs4all.nl (Wilbert Hetterscheid) on 2008.06.23 at 05:01:42(17914) Hi Larry, Looks like it is Amorphophallus sumawongii but for a good ID of many Araceae you need to make pix of the lower part of the spadix that is wrapped up in the spathe. You need to cut away the basal part of the wrap for that.
