Re: [aroid-l] Ebay titanum

From: StroWi at t-online.de (StroWi) on 2004.02.06 at 22:28:00(11102) Hi Susan, no, no, I did NOT buy it.... for the space I have in my home I have more than enough titanums. Mine never send up an additional leaf at the edge of the pot, too. ( Just some funny leaflet close to the petiole about which I still have to send an update to the aroid-L) That's why I asked to look for the small leaves on the picture and for me the petiole is to dark, too. But maybe/hopefully we are wrong in our scepticism and the winner of the auction has got a nice titanum. Good growing, Bernhard. +More Dollbergen, Germany approx. zone 6/7 "Susan Cooper" schrieb: > Did you buy it Berhard? > Although I can't see the picture of the plant well, I would guess it is > NOT.
