RE: [Aroid-l] Gonatopus species-Yup!

Hi Brian,

It seems like this third form isn't G. boivinii. Where can we look at
pictures of that?

The large all-green knee-bearing form of G. boivinii is quite common here in
cultivation beside the dark grey, striped one. They are definitely the same
species: G. boivinii.

Cheerio,
Wilbert
