Aroid
I'm along time lurker of the previous group and
happy to see all the activity on the new list. While we're on the
subject of the small aroids - I have a tiny plant (1 to 3 " high) that I
bought at the LAIFS show a few years as an unknown aroid. I'm not very
knowledgeable about Aroids but am trying to learn.
Would some of you "experts" look at the pictures
I've uploaded and see if you can tell me what it is, please? The lady I
bought it from grew it in a terrarrium and since I already have at leaset 2
hundred terrarriums, I've done the same. As you can see from the 1st
picture it's a clumping variety - it started out as just a couple of little
plants and I've divided it several times. I took it out of the bowl to
take the pictures and layed out several representative plants and leaves. The
stems almost always have a lot of red to them and the new growth is
bronzy which sometimes lingers. It's an attractive little thing and I
hope to use it as an understory plant in a bonsai forest I'm growing.
I took a couple of plants out three or four months ago and am growing
them in the regular atmosphere of my house - they are doing fine but are not
multiplying like they do in the "bubble bowl".
TIA
