I agree. Exactly the same as I have seen in Thailand (where it is wild on forested limestone escarpments) and in cultivation throughout Malaysia where its tough constitution makes it very popular with the owners of coffee shops to decorate their yards.

Hello

The first picture looks identical to my Aglaonema which has been identified as A. brevispathum hospitum.

The monkey is gorgeous - what type is she? Thank you for sharing! That Dieffenbachia is something else. I love it!

Dear Eduardo & friends,

This plant in my collection in Guayana Francesca looks like the Aglaomena or Bognera in Santourys mail. I collected it locally but did not register where. I often collect plants on tourist trips but have not allways the time to write things down.

Dieffenbachia spec FG.

I think these Dieffenbachias on the coest of FG are also of Amerindian origin.

Detail of the same Dieffenbachia. They grow among other Amerindian plants like Caladiums etc.

At least a picture of Anoucha that went on our last Oiapogue expedition in September. She is a hunting victim, confiscated by IBAMA and given to our boatsman to raise. She is adorable.

have a nice day, tchao Joep
