Re: [Aroid-l] Amorphophallus from Madagascar - identity request

From: "Wilbert Hetterscheid" <hetter at xs4all.nl> on 2009.10.05 at 12:54:49(20156) Hi Brian, Somebody made a mistake with labels. The label belongs to a series of plants from Roeoesli & Hoffman, all A. taurostigma or a species clolesy allied (Madagascar). The plant in your flowering pictures is the N. Thai - S. Chinese - Burmese Am. kachinensis.
