Dear Hermine:
I wanted to suggest that we send this to a
couple of my friends in Brazil
for their comments. Would this be ok with you?

Sorry that I asked about this. I did not
realize that I still had the message. I will, with Hermine’s permission
contact my Brazilian friends.

Does anyone know the history of this plant? I found a stock photo of
what looks like this species that may be growing in the wild....

I have grown Burle Marx for years, starting with some small plant I got at
Roehr's in New Jersey in the late sixties. something
about this photo looks highly massaged, and I do not know if it is colour
enhancement or what, since I do not have those fancy programs to do that.
As I recall, many of us plant people in NY and Massachussets who had the
greenhouse facilities, grew this plant and many of us got them from Roehr's Nursery in East Rutherford New Jersey, a magical
place.
