From: abri1973 at wp.pl (Marek Argent) on 2008.07.29 at 16:26:20(18285) Hi, This can be Diefenbachia 'Exotica', a cultivar of D. maculata (D. picta), but 'Exotica' has shorter petioles. However it is one of the old cultivars. http://www.wschowa.com/abrimaal/araceum/dieffenbachia/exotica.htm Best, Marek +More ----- Original Message ----- From: To: Sent: Monday, July 28, 2008 11:24 PM Subject: [Aroid-l] FW: Dieffenbachia Identification ________________________________ > Subject: FW: Dieffenbachia Identification To: ju-bo at msn.com Dear Aroidophiles, I need some help in I.D.`ing this Dieffenbachia for a friend.

From: Thomas.Croat at mobot.org (Tom Croat) on 2008.07.30 at 16:28:54(18294) Julius: To me this most closely resembles D. killipii Croat owing to the free, unsheathed length of petiole but without close examination I can not be sure. That species also is distinctive in having the staminate and pistillate portions of the spadix virtually contiguous.
