Re: [Aroid-l] Brazil seedling pics

**&* W* <r*@attglobal.net>**

The seed I received produced the same diversity Brian found. I threw most

of them out after growing them to up to a 6" pot size and kept about 10

that showed some potential to be different. My selections have less

division in the leaf blade and almost white veins with a blush of red on

the back of the leaf. Several flowered this spring. All the inflorescences

had spathes shorter than the spadix and produced a fragrance unlike any

other philodendron I have encountered. They might just be forms of

bipinnatifidum but I suspect they are hybrids. Perhaps the attached photo

will explain it better than I do.

Here are some pics of the Philodendrons seedlings I grew out form that
Brazilian seed order a few years back. Most of these were under
different names some were suppose to be forms of Selloum but I think
most are either forms of Selloum (bipinnatifidum) or hybrids. I have
never grown out so many philo seeds to get so much diversity. I did get
4 vining forms of philos from that order that did grow out. Most if not
all look identical and though not all were true to their named tagged
they were forms I had ordered.
