I appreciated the information given to us on this list by A.=0ASunjian with respect to Philodendron =E2=80=98xEvansii=E2=80=99=0Aand Philodendron =E2=80=98Soledad=E2=80=99. However, I want to know more about the =E2=80=9CPlantsmen=E2=80=9D in=0Athe Aroid Plant Family. We can read=0Aabout the old timey Botanist (e.g. Schott and Engler & Kraus), the=0ABotanists of our life time (e.g. Cecil Prime and Monroe Birdsey), and the=0Acurrent Botanists. But how about the=0APlansmen?
What is the story of Anderson=E2=80=99s Red (Philodendron) and of=0Aparticular interest would be Bob McCauley of Fantastic Gardens fame in Miami? What other Plantsmen should we know about? How about famous Plantsmen in Australia, the=0AUK, Germany, etc.? What cultivars or hybrids are they responsible for?
I, for one, would really appreciate anyone taking the time=0Ato either write this down or tell me where I might otherwise find it.
Thank you.
