[Aroid-l] Does anyone know this Philodendron?

From: ExoticRainforest <Steve at exoticrainforest.com> on 2009.07.22 at 22:42:19(19585) Pete, I just wanted to thank youagain for pointing me towards Philodendron pusillum as per myrequest on Aroid l for an ID on the species. Eduardo helped a greatdeal and I've created a brief page on the plant. The tag is long lostand I'm not even certain where it came from but it does appear to berare in collections according to Eduardo's material. I've tried toinclude photos that match to his and Josef's description but if you seeanything wrong please do point it out. I've also sent Eduardo the linkso he can tell me if he sees anything wrong. I know I often get long winded in my own zeal to learn and scare peopleaway from reading my pages so I've intentionally kept this one brief. These pages are really just my personal notes to myself and I use themto remind myself of what I've been taught by guys like you, Eduardo,Tomand others. So thanks again for your help. If anyone on this forum has managed to see an inflorescence on thisspecimen and have a photo I'd love to be able to use it, especially ifyou know what the fruit color is. That info was not included in thedescription and I'm not certain if it is known. http://www.exoticrainforest.com/Philodendron%20pusillum%20pc.html Steve Lucas HTML +More www.ExoticRainforest.com Peter Boyce wrote: Steve, Mymind turns towards P. pusillum or P. humile....

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!
