Re: [Aroid-l] Panama Aroid

From: "Harry Witmore" <harrywitmore at witmore.net> on 2009.12.03 at 11:53:54(20379) Thanks to all for the leads. I guess I need to yank this thing from the terrarium and grow it in the greenhouse to see if it will mature a bit and maybe flower. I wish I had more information about it but I have not been able to even find out who or where it came from. Just that it was from Panama which Mike noted is not much to go on.

I said that I thought it was Philodendron subgen. Pteromischum and still do believe it is that despite Mike Grayum’s belief that it might not be. I have seen material exactly like this. No name, of course. Many of these buggers are new and you could never name one without flowers.

It's definitely NOT hederaceum/scandens/micans, which have a very short petiolar sheath and an otherwise terete petiole; the venation is wrong for Monstera Pete On Tue, Nov 24, 2009 at 8:23 PM, Harry Witmore wrote: I have had another person send me a note off list saying the same thing. I haven't located a list of Philos in the subgenus yet but it helps. Steve, I'm pretty sure this is not hederaceum or not like any of the many clones I have had. I haven't had any with a petiole like this one. Michael, these are all the same plant although the first picture does look very much like a Monstera the rest of the plant doesn't look like any I have seen. Thanks for the id's Jon and Steve. I forgot that folder existed.

Pteromischum. THE expert on this group is Missouri's Mike Grayum.

It was supposedly collected in Panama but I have no other info other than that. If someone had told me it was from Asia I would say it was a species of Pothos.
