Re: [Aroid-l] Piptospatha

From: Peter Boyce <phymatarum at googlemail.com> on 2010.01.28 at 06:22:05(20519) Hi Devin, Your Schismat. Is S. calyptrata sensu lato, which based on the last revision (Hay & Yuzammi, Telopea 9., 2000) includes S. neoguineensis and a great number of other names. Frosty Kiss is Schismatoglottis pusilla Engl., a species restricted the Philippines. It has been in tc in Thailand for a couple of years and in various private collections for many years (Josef Bogner has the a similar or identical clone and has had it since at least since the mid-80s. It is not a Thai native.

I have a quick ID question for a Schismatoglottis that I acquired some time ago. Here is a picture of the plant. http://hydrophytesblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/schismatoglottis-sp-4- vi-09-i-b.jpg Does anyone have any ideas? I don't quite remember how I got to it, but one possibility that surfaced was S. neoguineensis. I really like these plants and I hope to find more. I have wondered if the variety being offered by Asiatica Nursery, 'Frosty Kiss', might be the same thing as my plant(?). http://www.asiaticanursery.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=plants.plantDetail&plant _id33 _______________________________________________ Aroid-L mailing list Aroid-L@www.gizmoworks.com http://www.gizmoworks.com/mailman/listinfo/aroid-l _______________________________________________ Aroid-L mailing list Aroid-L@www.gizmoworks.com http://www.gizmoworks.com/mailman/listinfo/aroid-l
