Dear Michael,

You are correct, I hope that you have received/read my posting on this plant
'Santa Leopoldiana' as far as I understand is a place-name, as is "Spirito Santo, so perhaps a few species got 'lumped' under the name Santa Leopoldiana. When you do manage to see a TRUE P. spiritus-santi, and examine the texture and shape of its foliage, you will realize that you are in the presence of perfection!

Sincerely,

Julius
