Re: Namibian Aroids?


Jason,

Sorry for the mix-up. We went to Zambia to see Victoria Falls, then we went to Botswana wherein part of our tour was along the border of Namibia. In both countries, I saw some of the commonly cultivated aroids. I suppose Namibia had them, too. Attached is a picture of some at the hotel we stayed in in Botswana.

I am shortly to leave as a Peace Corps Volunteer in Namibia.  I found an online checklist of flora of southern Africa, searched "Araceae" and "Namibia," and got exactly two returns: Amorphophallus abyssinicus and the exotic Pistia stratiotes.  Is this truly a correct result -- that these are the only two Araceae occurring in Namibia?
