From: Ron Kaufmann <kaufmann at sandiego.edu> on 2009.02.18 at 15:13:21(19122) Hi Tom et al., I have seen this plant in cultivation with the name "Philodendronspecies 69686a". Other than that, I can't offer any insights about itsidentity or provenance. Ron HTML +More Tom Croat wrote: Dear Cassia: Thanksfor your willingness to pass this on to Aroid-L. As I told you it isnotPhilodendron angustilobum Croat & Grayum but I have always assumedthatthis thing came from the Burle-Marx collection. Perhaps it really is aspecies but I have always assumed that it was a hybrid, perhaps with P.pedatum. I am hoping that someone on the list might have morefamiliaritywith this taxon.
