From: ExoticRainforest <Steve at ExoticRainforest.com> on 2009.08.17 at 23:20:40 Thanks so much Marcus!  I will addthese photos and your information regarding P. crassinervium tothe page right away! Your inflorescence is very much like Schott'spainting.  I also received a private note from Anna Haige at Kew andshe saw little difference in Mauro's photo and the drawing as well.  Isuppose it is the term "boat shaped" that makes some of our eyes dodouble takes.

After that, if you wish to respond please do so. I just try to post what the scientific texts say. > > If any of you have photos of the spathe and spadix please drop mealine.  I'll gladly give you credit for your photo on the page.  > > http://www.exoticrainforest.com/Philodendron%20crassinervium%20Philodendron%20lanceolatum.pc.html > > > > Thanks! > > Steve Lucas > www.ExoticRainforest.com > > Steve@ExoticRainforest.com > > Marcus A.
