Re: Alocasia macrorrhiza berrry color

     Red. Whitish could perhaps refer to the fruiting spathe of some 
     (Bornean)species that are quite often misidentified as A. 
     macrorrhizos.

Aroiders:
     
        Has anyone seen mature fruit on Alocasia macrorrhiza and if so
what color are the berries.  I have them reported as whitish though I 
honestly don't know where I came up with this and a reviewer of my 
description says he thinks they may be orange.  I would really 
appreciate a reply from anyone who has more intimate knowledge of this 
species.
     
        Tom
