Thanks Beth! I know many of the Anthurium collectors are going to drool
over these. Since your links did not come out highlighted I'm copying them
to make it easier to simply click and go right to the page:

If you love Aroids, you are going to want some of these plants. And Julius,
I'd bet you saw Beth's really strange Anthurium near the oil fields!

Hello group!
Steve over at Exotic Rainforest sent me an email recently saying that I
should share my in-situ photos of the aroids I encounter when out hiking. I
live in Ecuador, in close proximity to some of the cloud forests where Dr.
Croat does his collections. Rather than fill your inboxes up with dozens of
attachments, I've uploaded them to a gallery at
for your viewing pleasure. Some of the aroids there, I have been able to
identify (with Steve's and others' kind help) and others remain NOIDS. Many
of the photos are of juvenile forms that spring up from the edges of road
cuts. If any of you recognise them, please let me know and I will update
their labels accordingly!
There are two photos marked "Mystery Anthurium" which Dr. Croat believes may
be new species. If you are interested in seeing more photos of this
particular species, they are at
http://photobucket.com/UnknownAnthurium
There are four or five specimens of it growing in the Quito Botanical
Gardens, which is where I took the photos of it. It appears to have been
rescued from the oil pipeline near Mindo, Ecuador; beyond this, garden staff
don't know anything about it. It is a very large, freestanding plant - the
initial photos are of leaves just a hair over 6' in length; later photos are
of younger leaves which were only about 46" - still fairly impressive.
I hope you enjoy!
Beth
