Re: aroideana!! A must have

From: "Julius Boos" ju-bo at email.msn.com> on 2001.09.06 at 21:29:06(7382) Aroid Friends, I`d like to add my voice to Brian here, I do not believe that I could survive without these wonderful publications, I have all the issues, and what a wealth of invaluable information is contained within their pages! Some of it is a little outdated, but it is not available anywhere else! We have been discussing 'self heading' Philodendrons on this forum, and only in my Aroideanas are there photos of several of the rarer species such as P. saxicolum and P. adamantinium, INCLUDING Dr Mayo`s original description of P. leal-costae. I believe that most are still available from the IAS, and those of us who are lucky enough to be in Miami later this month can and should pick up a set! Personally, I can hardly wait to see the new issue which is out anythime now!!!! Sincerely, Julius Boos, WPB, FLORIDA +More >>I just would like to let everyone know buying all the aroideana was one of the best things I have done. Their are tons of great pictures which are a must for me LOL. Also lots of info on all the plants I have and the millions I will soon have :>) Just got reading in Aroideana Vol,6 No1 About Bette Waterbury Tracking down Philo Santa Leopoldiana. This is the same plant in the auction and one I am very much after. Its great to hear about how she got the plant and how much it meant to her. Also have been reading about Dr Croat LOL as if he does not have an article in just about every Aroideana. But the article was about propagating brought back cuttings form south America. Using a chicken wire to hold long fiber spaghnum moss under the tables. I hope others will read this that don't already have the aroideana and will consider buying them. They have to be the greatest source for aroid info available.<< _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp
