Re: Stolen plant

Michael,

I will bow to other authorities here, but the vining heart-shaped leaves
do bot, I don't believe, belong to an aroid. My first reaction is to
suggest a member of the milweed family, perrhaps a Dischidia, but they
uniformly have opposite leaves, not alternate as this one does. It maybe a
Piper species. To be honest, I'm not as well versed with the old world
aroid tropicals as numerous others on this list - but my suggestion is
that you may want to explore some other groups, not just the aroids. Good
luck - l;et us know.
