Re: [Aroid-l] New aroid in western Australia?

From: "Daniel Devor" <plantguy at zoominternet.net> on 2011.01.22 at 18:52:58(21791)

A few years ago (2004) a person in OZ sent me some pics of Typhonium he had
collected way up north near Darwin where he lived, but after awhile he
seemed to fall of the face of the Earth. I believe he had communicated with
a few of the senior (in knowledge, not years) members of the aroid-l or at
least I had suggested he do that....do not know if he ever did to be honest.
Anyway, I thought since I have the pics I would share them. On was IDed has
T. flagelliforme at the time by I believe Wilbert, but again it has been
many years....some cute little fellas anyway. I hope they attach to the
message OK,
Dan
