Re: [Aroid-l] Amorphophallus konjac hybbrid?

From: "Wilbert Hetterscheid" <hetter at xs4all.nl> on 2010.05.21 at 10:37:15(21083) This is a normal konjac, albeit with some more rugosity on the appendix but no reason to suspect a hybrid. It may easily be gone next year and return etc. Cheers, Wilbert +More > -----Oorspronkelijk bericht----- > Van: aroid-l-bounces@gizmoworks.com > [mailto:aroid-l-bounces@gizmoworks.com] Namens M.van_Dinther@lumc.nl > Verzonden: maandag 17 mei 2010 8:18 > Aan: aroid-l@gizmoworks.com > Onderwerp: [Aroid-l] Amorphophallus konjac hybbrid? > > Some years ago I bought an Amorphophallus yunnanensis > (according to the label), Now this year it has bloomed and it > is definitely not yunnanensis, it (to me) looks more like a > hybrid between konjac and perhaps napalensis.
