RE: [Aroid-l] Amorphophallus oicuture and location question

Dear Bernhard,

There are indeed strains of paeoniifolius that are BIG, as Julius noted.
However, looking at the glossyness of the leaflets in this big one from
Fairchild, I would guess it is titanum. You can see that the leaflets
margins are strongly recirved as a reaction to too much light. The leafelsta
re not narrow.

Cheerio,
Wilbert
