I just discovered this fascinating desert aroid when researching Zamioculcas. (On Steve's website, for those of you who knew him.) I'd be interested in learning more if anybody has grown it. =C2=A0 -- The Silent Seed Rare and Unusual plants from around the world.=C2=A0 thesilentseed.com =C2=A0 _______________________________________________ Aroid-L mailing list Aroid-L@www.gizmoworks.com http://www.gizmoworks.com/mailman/listinfo/aroid-l -- The Silent Seed Rare and Unusual plants from around the world.=C2=A0 thesilentseed.com --000000000000745927058eaaa0c0-- --===============0301964309472545895==
