Dear Dr. Wannakrairoj,
Aloha.
Is Aglaonema cochinchinense,as a pure species, available in Thailand? Is this selected clone much different from typical populations? Also,do you know the current status of the plants in habitat? Did you ever meet Masuo Moriwaki from Hawaii?
That is a beautiful plant and a great photo. Thank you for sending it.
Aloha,
Leland
