Re: [Aroid-l] Intrageneric crossing - a good reference

Hermine

Just to make you even MORE scared, most people don't even put Sanseveria in the Liliaceae any more...

What frustrates me about all the efforts expended on family shuffling & debating is that, e.g., c. 65% of the aroids of Borneo have yet to receive even ONE name!

Before we all get too excited about intergeneric hybrids 'proving' that
two genera should be merged it's wort recalling the number of intergeneric
hybrids in the orchids, especially the vandoid orchids, where I believe up
to seven genera (maybe more - I'm a tad out of date) have been used to
make a commercial hybrid including crosses involving Phalaenopsis and
Vanda.

and the NAMES you have to make up for them!

you might know this already and not even care...but the position among the
Liliaceae of Sansevieria is still being debated hotly by the 12 people who
care.

I am slightly terrified of orchid breeders.
