[Aroid-l] Pseudodracontium lacourii ID?

From: hetter at xs4all.nl (Wilbert Hetterscheid) on 2008.07.27 at 09:38:52(18257) Ken is ALMOST right, it is Am. serrulatus, a close relative of Am. obscurus. Dear newbies to Amorphophallus: please have a look at the Amorphophallus/Pseudodracontium pages on the IAS website. They should be updated (my fault) but there is enough to see and read for an introduction on what is an Amorphophallus and what not. Use the resources that are freely available!
