Re: [Aroid-l] Alocasia of Thailand

From: Tony Avent <tony at plantdelights.com> on 2009.09.04 at 16:44:50(19924) Pete: I was just reading over your fascinating paper on Alocasia in Thailand about both Alocasia cucullata and A. macrorrhizos not being valid species. If this is the case and they are old cultigens, why would they not be properly written a Alocasia x macrorrhizos and Alocasia x cucullata with an appropriate cultivar name for the clone in commerce? +More Peter Boyce wrote: > > Dear All, > > > > For anyone interested there is attached to this a recent paper on the > /Alocasia/ in Thailand, including the description of a large-growing > species from the Thai/Cambodian border. > > > > Peter > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > _______________________________________________ > Aroid-L mailing list > Aroid-L@www.gizmoworks.com > http://www.gizmoworks.com/mailman/listinfo/aroid-l -- Tony Avent Plant Delights Nursery @ Juniper Level Botanic Garden 9241 Sauls Road Raleigh, North Carolina 27603 USA Minimum Winter Temps 0-5 F Maximum Summer Temps 95-105F USDA Hardiness Zone 7b email tony@plantdelights.com website http://www.plantdelights.com phone 919 772-4794 fax 919 772-4752 "I consider every plant hardy until I have killed it myself...at least three times" - Avent _______________________________________________ Aroid-L mailing list Aroid-L@www.gizmoworks.com http://www.gizmoworks.com/mailman/listinfo/aroid-l
