I did not get that picture=2C you could resend again? thank you Marcus 2013/1/2 Tom Croat <=3BThomas.Croat@mobot.org>=3B Dear Corey:  =3B I have sent this picture to my friends in Brazil asking them if they know what this plant is. =3B So far only Eduardo Goncalves has responded saying that he does not know it. =3B It would be nice to get a =93larger=94 image of this plant. Does anyone know just where in the Amazon region this species was seen?  =3B Tom  =3B From: aroid-l-bounces@www.gizmoworks.com [mailto:aroid-l-bounces@www.gizmoworks.com] On Behalf Of Corey W Sent: Sunday=2C December 30=2C 2012 9:56 PM To: Discussion of aroids Subject: Re: [Aroid-l] Philodendron sp. 'Burle-Marx Fantasy'  =3B Tom=2C I was the one who posted the first bit asking for more information on 'Burle Marx Fantasy' and provided the link. I figured if anyone was interested I would pursue either getting a higher resolution copy of that photo (which would be larger with more detail) and/or follow up with the company to get ahold of the photographer and ask the locality the photo was taken at. I am very interested in learning more about this species as a whole=2C and I am a researcher so anything to help science LOL. Hermine - are we talking the same plant? I know there is a 'Burle Marx' (which I don't know much about but it is a large green plant that I'm not sure if it is a species or hybrid) and 'Burle Marx Fantasy' =3B which is a small=2C slow growing=2C grey-green leaf with darker markings on the veins. The photo is right on for my plant=2C if not a bit more green likely from processing (likely HDR or just trying to make up for low light). This is not the juvenile form of 'Burle Marx'=2C but a completely different plant from the same source. Often when I talk about 'Burle Marx Fantasy' there is confusion for those who haven't seen it=2C and I hope not to start or continue confusion over it. I don't even know if anyone has even managed to flower it.

I remember seeing this picture in EXOTICA in the Brooklyn Public Library reference section and having a conniption fit of desire over it. middle 1960's when i was sort of an infant. hermine Dear Hermine:  =3B I wanted to suggest that we send this to a couple of my friends in Brazil for their comments.
