Michael,
thanks for
the=A0reply.
Actually the plant is not
=A0mine,
but belongs to a fellow aroider of our
German http://www.amorphophallus-forum.de/
, post # http://www.amorphophallus-forum.de/viewtopic.php?f=3D22&t=3D1548&sid=3D99672338838cf8fc65c3d7932ebb833b=A0;you
have to be registered to=A0see the pics, that's why=A0I posted the pictures
directly.
He suspected that is not
paeonifolius, maybe due to the variation in the basic colour of the
petiole and in comparison to=A0the paeonifolius he has seen before.
I myself grow two seed raised plants which look
identical (see attached pic, the big plant in the center) and, I guess,
pretty typical for the wild=A0type paeonifolius (rough petiole, glossy
upper leaf surface).
Regarding the
seedling from my fellow aroider - so you would say it fits with the
described traits (smooth "stem", bacis=A0petiole colour=A0from
green to reddish, allways with big white spots) in the variation seen in
paeonifolius?
Any more comments from
others?
Happy commenting,
Bernhard.

Why do you say it's not
paeoniifolius ? =A0note ii ..
some spp. have several different =A0forms
of coloured stems .
you will have to wait until it flowers before
doubting ..
It could possibly be a hybrid if it was seed .

Amorphophiles,
would somebody recognise the species from the
attached pictures?
The basic colour of
the petiole is variable from green to reddish, but it always has the big
white spots.
The seeds were bought in
spring via ebay from the seller squeaky-buffalo as paeonifolius, it's
obviously not paeonifolius.
Or could it be the
paeonifolius with the smooth "stem"? (I guess not.....)
Happy id-ing,
Bernhard.
