Re: [Aroid-l] Does anyone know this Philodendron?

From: ExoticRainforest <Steve at ExoticRainforest.com> on 2009.07.16 at 04:04:42(19541) Pete, I just found Eduardo'spublished description of Philodendron pusillum and the driedmaterial looks a great deal like the blade and venation of this plant. I just sent him a note with the photos. I also checked out his Philodendronhumile but found virtually nothing. If any of you are interestedin reading and having a copy of his paper I've attached it in PDF formincluding photos. I'll also report back with his opinion as soon as Ireceive a response. I'm planning on reading his entire paper in the morning! Very good eyes Pete so thanks again!!

I'vehad thisPhilo for at least three years, likely more, and have no idea what itmight beor where it originated. I've taken the plant to Dr. Croat in St. Louisand he appears to believe it is fully grown but has no idea what itmightbe. I've also sent these photos to several aroid botanists with noresults. Both the blades and the pot in the photo are approximately15 cm (6 inches) and the entire plant is small. I grow it inmoderatelybright light but have never seen an inflorescence. I've includedphotosof both the adaxial and abaxial blade surfaces (upper and lower), thepetiolesand stem. If any of you grow it or know where it originated I wouldappreciate the info. Thanks!
