Peter,
Further to my last posting, having checked my notes and my memory (I was in
the US about 8 years ago!) and comparing against the few descriptions I have
of Spaths I realize the miniature species had to have been S. floribundum. I
would love to try this again if anyone has this in Britain or Europe.
Regards,
Geoffrey
