  Dear Derek,

  I will certainly work toward making this happen, Eduardo is in the field at the moment, but I should hear from him on his return to 'civilization'.   
  Where is the site that you mention ('The Living Rainforest') located??   I`d like to see and smell the plants that smell different to our 'regular' P. 'selloum'!
  I`d request that anyone who may know of a plant collection that just MAY have some of the VERY old collections of Philodendrons to please contact me w/ their suggestions, I`d love to see some 'pre-tissue culture' specimens of P. 'selloum'.

  Good Growing to all,

  Julius



  >>The Editor of 'Aroideana' says "yes, please" to such a paper, both for
  that publication, and because it would be great to have it sorted out
  once and for all for Florida.  (Is there such a thing as 'once and for
  all' in taxonomy?)  Derek

  p.s to Eduardo  I would like to repeat my recent question to you
  publicly. The @selloum-type@ that we were working around at The Living
  Rainforest had a very different smell to its leaves from that to which I
  am accustomed in the common Florida plants. Any comments on odor as a
  taxonomic character?
