Dear All
Don't know how many folks are ordering from Nature Products, but for those
that are, the following name corrections might be of interest:
'Alocasia odora 'giant blue arrow leaf'
(www.natureproducts.net/Forest_Products/Aroids/colocasia.html) is Alocasia
macrorrhizos 'Rubra'
'Alocasia lanciloba'
(http://www.natureproducts.net/Forest_Products/Aroids/Arrow_leaf.html) is A.
acuminata, a species first described (in the mid
19th ) from Bangladesh but which occurs throughout the northern part of
Thailand, Indo-China and into SW China.
