Iunderstand it is a Brazilian specie but I can't find much about it. Especially interested in how large the leaves will grow. This is theinformation I've uncovered so far:Some sources say this is a hybrid plant. Both TROPICOS (Missouri BotanicalGarden) and the International Plant Names Index show it is a specie from Brazilso I will treat it as a specie. The plant has long wavy narrow leaves. Thereare at least two variations of the specie and one (not the variety shown in myphoto) has much narrower and extremely wavy leaves. This plant is a selfheader and is not a climber. Some consider it a "tree Philodendron" thatdevelops a thick "trunk" as it grows. I am unable to find a technicalscientific description on any of the normal sources so I have no idea how longthe leaves will get but I'm told they will reach close to 30 inches. At onetime P. stenolobum was thought to be a more narrow form of P. williamsii but isnow recognized as a separate species.I'm attaching a photo.Thanks!Steve Lucaswww.ExoticRainforest.com**************************************_______________________________________________Aroid-l mailing listAroid-l@gizmoworks.comhttp://www.gizmoworks.com/mailman/listinfo/aroid-l_______________________________________________ Aroid-l mailing list Aroid-l@gizmoworks.com http://www.gizmoworks.com/mailman/listinfo/aroid-l
